We are looking for a 10.5 megapixal digital camera that will be compatible with SLR minolta lens - 30x80 and 80x200. I have heard that there is a special adapter that will allow us to use these len's. Have looked all over the net and can't seem to find much on the subject - can anyone help? thank you!

Sony bought all the photo assets of Konica Minolta.

In theory all the Konica Minolta SLR lenses should fit on the Sony "Alpha" DSLR. More precisely, the Sony will take all the Minolta "A-type" baionet mount lenses.

This being said, be a bit careful. It seems that among 10mp DSLRs the Canon EOS 400D and the Nikon D80 have received better reviews, than the Sony. So do not go overboard and buy a potentially inferior (though still very good) camera just for the sake of two lenses (especially when similar lenses from either Canon or Nikon will come in some kits).

Hope this helps

u can go to the website of the lens
or just check on ebay

I agree with Antoine. Your lenses will probably fit, but the camera is not a "leader" in image quality. Check here and click on the review and opwner opinions.

I definitely agree with the other posters. You didn't elaborate on the lenses but if they are not high dollar pro glass I'd wouldn't base my decision on going to a high end dslr based on a couple of older lenses. Also, even if the lenses fit they may not fully function and/or support the full capabilities of the new camera body (for exampe they may not support the camera's exposure metering system). I've read good things about the Sony alpha and I like that it has image stabilization built into the body but I'd do a serious comparison to both Canon and Nikon.
