The Minolta Dimage A1 A Digital Imaging Tool designed by Photographers for Photographers

Pros Image stabilization, hot shoe, Very good AF performance, and excellent battery life
Cons Complex operation, slightly noisy images
Recommended it? Yes

After a long cold wet and very unpleasant winter everyone in the Bluegrass State is eagerly looking for signs of spring. My friend (who sells new & used digital and analog photographic equipment) and I spent two recent weekends searching for the first signs of spring with the new Minolta Dimage A1...

In a word - AWESOME

byJakeblack Oct 31, 2003
22 Helpfuls 23 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros FAST AF and almost no shutter lag. Antishake feature. Manual lens controls. Excellent...
Cons Zoom lens a little sticky. Memory card included is only 16MB
Recommended it? Yes

I have had this camera for about a week now, and I have tested it indoors and out, in a variety of lighting and shooting scenarios from sports to portraits. I never tried the Minolta 7 series models that the A1 replaces, so you will not see me drawing comparisons based on experience. Although I... Read full review »

Minolta's DiMAGE Z20: A poor man's "prosumer, swiss army knife" digital camera...

byjeadm Jun 30, 2005
14 Helpfuls 15 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Versatility, ergonomics, long zoom and battery life, fast startup and operation,...
Cons No low light focus assist, no microphone, vulnerable card slot.
Recommended it? Yes

The Minolta DiMAGE Z20 is the model that appears to be replacing the DiMAGE Z10, a camera I also have owned. This is a real good camera for somebody who wants to have it all (almost) but just can't afford one that does. And believe me, there isn't one that truly has it all. I know, I'm always...

Pros Reasonably priced, high quality pictures with true-to-life color
Cons None
Recommended it? Yes

This is my third digital camera. I was shopping for one with high megapixels and decent optical zoom, most seriously considering the Kodak 10x optical zoom EasyShare. I found this model at Costco. For nearly $100 cheaper than the Kodak, it came with almost twice the memory (internal+included card)... Read full review »
