The Sony Alpha DSLR-A100 is the final result of a cooperation of Konica Minolta and Sony which began in autumn 2005. In winter 2005/2006 Konica Minolta decided to hand over all its assets related to DSLR technology to Sony.

So this new digital SLR camera is Sony's first product in the SLR segment. It is the successor of the Konica Minolta Dynax 5D which had a similar antishake system. The sensor is placed on the antishake-mechanism. The camera doesn't need special antishake lenses because shake-compensating movements are done by the sensor. So most of the lenses for Minolta's 35mm autofocus SLRs can be used on the Sony camera body since the lens mount is none other than Minolta's old alpha- or A-bayonet. A dust removing system helps to keep the sensor clean.
