Konica Minolta DiMAGE A200 review
After half a year and thousends of photo's I am very happy with my A200. I have owned 12 digital camera's. The last were the Canon G3 and the Olympus C5060. I do a lot of available light photography and I like the image stabiliser and the ISO 800. You can make photo's in very dim street or interiour lighting at 1/4 of a second handheld. ISO 200 is great and ISO 800 is still usable. Anyway, did you ever make a scan of a 400 ISO film?
The autofocus works very well in dim light at 28mm wide. I use spot autofocus. If the subject is too dark or has too little contrast then you cam aim at something with vertical lines and press the button halfways and then aim at your subject. With normal light or on a tripod you have to switsch the stabalizer off. If you like saturated colors like Canon uses then you press the Func button and choose vivid colours. The dynamic range is also very good. You don't have to set the contrast low when you make photo's in direkt sunlight. I also like the tiltable screen and the hand driven zoom lens of 28-200mm. You also can use standard 49mm filters.
Problems:
Autofocus rather slow. In dim lighting at 200mm sometimes no focus at all.
8 megapixels • 1.8″ screen • 28 – 200 mm (7.1×)
