and you see in body stabilization of the sony brand has all the stabilizaton adventage of in lense systems, but works with every lense! and the a200 and a700 have even improved stabilization than the a100 (0.5 stops) - so based on the chart only one lense - the nikon 18-200mm - has a 0.5 stop more effective stabilization system than the sony alpha a200 and a700 is capeable of.
