I have a Dimage 5; funny to think it cost well north of $1K.

Always like the A models.

The (Konica) Minolta G600 was a pretty good compact for its day.

I still when both the Dimage 5 and 7 were launched. I was very impressed with the specs in comparison with my Canon G1. Unfortunately the battery life on the D7 was a nightmare. I assume the D5 had similar issues. The firmware updates helped to improve some issues. The last time I shot with the D7 I used it mainly for infrared photography. Looking back over my D7 photos recently I'm still impressed with the photos although 5mp looks so tiny now.
