 I
have just posted a gallery of 27 sample images from a production Minolta
DiMAGE A1. This is in advance of completing our full review which should
be up within the next three weeks. I have to say that I was surprised
at how well the DiMAGE A1 performed, it's clearly a step ahead of the
DiMAGE 7Hi in terms of image quality and is most certainly in the running
to be labelled the best five megapixel prosumer digital camera. Resolution,
sharpness, tonal balance (with good dynamic range) and color response
are all improved. Add to this the A1's unique image stabilzation which
allows you to shoot at much slower shutter speeds and the A1 is a very
impressive 'all in one' package.
Minolta DiMAGE A1 Samples Gallery
There are 27 images in the samples gallery. Please do
not reproduce any of these images on a website or any newsletter / magazine
without prior permission (see our copyright
page). I make the originals available for private users to download
to their own machines for personal examination or printing (in conjunction
with this review), I do so in good faith, don't abuse it.
Unless otherwise noted images taken with
no particular settings at 2560 x 1920 (Fine or Extra-Fine JPEG). Images
downsampled to fit into 1024 x 1024 bounds to fit in your browser, as
always the original untouched image is available by clicking on a link
below the reduced image.
Note that some images were taken in the Adobe RGB color
space, these are labelled 'Adobe RGB' above the image and carry the suffix
of '-a', the smaller image has been converted from Adobe RGB to sRGB,
the original image is Adobe RGB (straight from the camera).

The Fujifilm X-T4 brings image stabilization, faster shooting and a bigger battery to the X-T series. It's not without its shortcomings but we found it to be an excellent stills and video shooter.
With its unusual form factor can the Tourbox aid the editing process? Will its price and variety of tactile controls appeal to photo and video editors who would like to streamline their workflow?
The Panasonic FZ1000 II is a worthy successor to the company's first large-sensor, long-zoom bridge camera, and a value-conscious rival to the popular Sony RX10-series. It's just as fast as its predecessor but produces nicer JPEGs, has significantly improved controls and interface, and more.
The DJI Mavic Air 2 is a Goldilocks drone. It's not the biggest or the smallest model out there, but it delivers just the right balance of size and features.
Exposure Software's latest Exposure X5 app is a surprisingly fast, feature-packed and affordable alternative to Adobe's Lightroom – with no subscription required.
