Minolta DiMAGE 7i review

I make a lot of use of the 7fps mode its a great feature for skating/ action shots so u get that perfect moment, or if using a tripod you can overlay the pics. Nice to have adjustable flash

Problems:

AWFUL image quality. I get digital grain on the sky, even on ISO 100, f8, 1/500! I have not used many others to compare but nothing can be worse. surely. Also, if you just use infinite focus when snapping a landscape, it comes out slightly out of focus. A friend who has the 7Hi complains about the same thing. The viewfinder is such low res i can mever actually tell if i'm in focus or not.
