Gordon,
I looked all around and couldn't find the A5, but the A50 looks great and
is pretty inexpensive in and of itself.
Question for you. Do you know if you can plug the camera (a5) directly
into the video in plugs on a TV to display pics right away.
Also, as I am completely new to this, any accessories you would recommend
to go along with this camera?
