Konica Minolta DiMAGE A200 review

I bought the A200 as my second dig. camera and have been shooting with it for about one year now.
Over all I am pleased with the camera.

When I bought it, I was considering an SLR instead, and now I regret not buying one.
The difference in image quality and response time will result in a new Canon or Nikon SLR any day now.

A200 is a good camera though. and I would recommend it to anyone that wants to be in control of the entire process without investing in an SLR.

Problems:

My main concern is that focus in low light situations are poor.

A200 is quick at startup, but the time between pressing the shutter release and the picture being taken is to long to stay in total controle over the result.

The LCD is a bit too small to fully evaluate the result.
