Konica Minolta Maxxum 5D (Dynax 5D) review

Excellent machine! No question - an excellent choice!
I am a very demanding customer. I am on a limited budget and have very discriminating taste and demand for quality. After a lot of time spent carefully deliberating, I chose this camera over Nikon and Canon options. This camera is a wonderful extension of my creativity. I can capture most of what I envision. This is normally a frustrating task, but I am consistently satisfied with the flexibility this camera provides. The anti-shake and performance in general provide lots of freedom and the low cost does as well - I can afford a larger lens arsenal for more shooting freedom. If this sounds anything like notions that you may have considered, get this camera!

Problems:

The only issue I have is the lack of usb 2.0. This is easily fixed with a cheap drive.
Ok, I wasn't honest. Another problem is getting behind in work - this camera is too much fun for me to limit my shooting!
