Konica Monolta DiMAGE A200 short Review by LAMSA

I have long sought a piont and shoot camera, because I come from the Minolta world, and so A mount gear have, I noticed that camera right on.

Not because he has erwisselbare lenses but all carakter properties combined that I would close with me.

I've looked at some cameras like the Canon G12 or the sony hv100x vondt but they are too expensive and far too much for pretending to be an SLR.

The KMDiA200 looks a bit like a baby SLR (KM5D) but it is certainly not with his EVF and 180 ° swivel and pull-bar LCD screen is a camera that was ahead of its time, and actually can compete fairly for the photographic work, because with 8.2 Mpix CCD makes it pretty nice photos in RAW and jPEG simultaneously.

Also the lens is not interchangeable, but the ability to set two ondersteude lenses to use, is of exceptional content quality and has a Moie distortion free wide and very sharp telephoto function you can shift smoothly.

filming he is also very nice but given the resolution (620 x 480) over a nice afterthought that this camera can, then you're there to present with HD quality print the current cameras expect.

Because I really am a hobby photographer that is not the main thing I expect from a camera of this caliber.

I am very happy, it is very beneficial to purchase and may well come when it comes to point and shot.

Beautiful minolta colors in fine and earned 5 stars in my world.

Problems:

Mine Had some problems withe the AS system but I solved that do renew the calibration.

The 4Gb CF card was aditional not suppoerted by Konica Minolta in the V1.0 release, but later you can use up to 16 Gb by en update of the firmware to V1.01
