I researched extensively before I purchased my Minolta Dimage camera. I leafed through each pro and consumer review I could find. I compared looks, sizes, costs, ratings, everything. I checked out the cameras in camera shops and on the web.

Based on all of that information I eventually selected the Minolta Dimage Camera 5 megapixel. After operating the camera on an almost daily basis for many months now I am cheerful to say that I made the best choice.

I once had the HP photosmart 935 5.3 megapixel which takes superb footage, but it’s was fairly slow and it ran through the batteries. Also it’s a more average sized camera. I would have liked to continue using that camera for the more important, planned photos and special pictures like fireworks and such. But I needed a 2nd camera that was as compact as possible, quick and easy to use, with a large LCD screen. I also wanted it to take clear photos without costing me an arm and a leg.

I could not be happier with the Minolta Dimage camera. It is even tinier and more streamlined than it seems in photographs, but the LCD is big with very chrisp images. It’s so fast at powering up that I can turn it on and off repeatedly to save its battery life, but I do not really have to simply because it battery last such a long time.

The sliding lens cover / power switch works wonderful and it prevents the camera from turning on in your pocket, purse or case. Plus it does not have a troublesome telescoping lens to worry about and the zoom is powerful.

The Minolta Dimage camera has every function and photo option that everyday camera users could need with truly easy to use buttons and menus. The buttons and lenses are all so completely positioned that I never mark up my LCD or place my finger over the lens. It is durable and obviously well made.

I keep it in my handbag every day in a tiny, slim case without a single problem. I am taking so many more pics now than I ever was before. The pictures made with my Minolta Dimage camera are so lovely, sharp and crisp. A lot of the smaller cameras have issues with fuzzy pictures because they are difficult to hold still. Unless you are jumping or shaking excessively for some strange reason, fuzzy pictures are not a problem with the Minolta Dimage camera.

I just love this camera. I most DEFINITELY endorse getting it to anyone!
