Great for learning manual features, not so good for low light photos.
After years of using a Minolta Maxxum 700si, I made my foray into digital photography with the A330. It's a fantastic camera for those wanting something a little better than a point and shoot. I have tiny hands, so the ergonomics were perfect for me. However, even though I bought mine brand new, after around 7000 shots I discovered a few problems started to pop up.
*The sensitivity of the sensor started to play up in manual and auto modes, leaving my photos under exposed when in fact the reading on the meter said the light was balanced.
*The shutter started to jam at 1/100.
*Noise started to become more prominent at 400ISO rather than just at 3200, even in medium light conditions.
My old minolta mount 70-300mm teles work a charm on this camera and the 18-55mm kit lens is pretty decent. I have also dragged this camera around as a backup to my old A750 for weddings and it has taken some fantastic results, but not so good results in low light conditions eg, live events etc. Despite buying a couple of Canon 60Ds and a 5D Mk2 since then, I still wholeheartedly recommend this camera for entry level photographers... I have since had the problems fixed and have given this camera to my 9 year old niece who's a budding photographer and she absolutely loves it. It's durable, light and easy to use. Most importantly, it's a great way for entry level photographers to learn the basics of manual functions as it tells you what to do on the LCD.
Apart from the problems at high shutter counts, it's an awesome camera.
