Konica Minolta DiMAGE Z6 review

Great structure, look and feel, I have bought the adaptoer for extra lenses and filters and they perfectly match (all 52 mm lenses / filters)>

Speed is great lcs gives great quick view. I like the idea that one day I'll buy an external flash and the camera's computer will adjust it self to the flash (TTL etc).

No disturtions at max zoom, stabilizer is perfect.

Plastic of camera is hard and not like a made in china toy. Warranty is world wide, unlike many other brands (such as sony, olympus).

Never seen such a good macro at cameras (even real SLR), portrait photos gives super quality and details, auto mode is quit good (as long as the flash is open and set to auto mode).

Problems:

I feel that the pictures color is to much natural, I feel the lack of "hard: colors of blue (like canon and olympus) but some say that their colors are to intensive and not natural, but I hope that one day Minolta will deliver a firmware upgrade with a nother color balance between "natural" and "vivid", I think this is the single problem I have encountered.
