 My favorite cameraJun 07, 2009
Konica Minolta Dimage Z2 4MP Digital Camera with 10x Optical ZoomFor more bang for the buck I would choose my Dimage Z2 anytime. It's fast on focus and outdoor shots are the best.

Fantastic camera!Dec 30, 2008
I bought this camera in 2004 and have used it extensively. I have taken it to Kamchatka, to Egypt, and many places in the US. This camera is capable of taking amazing pictures, easily and consistently. It works great, is easy to carry, and comfortable to use. Four years later, it's still my favorite camera to use when I want that 'special shot'. I wish Konica Minolta was still in business!

I love this camera!!!Aug 28, 2008
I have had this camera for almost 5 years. I have taken literally thousands of pictures with it and have never had a problem. I got it shortly after my son was born and have since used it to capture and freeze moments of his life. I take pictures almost on a daily basis not only of my family but also of nature and pretty much anything else that looks interesting. By no means am I a professional but in my opinion for a 5 yr old 4mp camera it still takes the sharpest most vibrant pictures. My mom recently bought my dream camera for herself and after using her camera then going back to my little minolta I still prefer my minolta.

 Konica Minolta out of camera businessJun 08, 2008
After 2 1/2 years my Z2 camera stopped working. When I turn it on the shutter makes a noise and the memory light comes on and stays on. The lens does not extend. I went to the KM website only to find the company no longer makes cameras and Sony has taken the responsibility for repairs. Sony charges a flat rate of $181 to work on the camera, plus parts, and we pay the shipping to get it there. There is an internal battery in the camera but only the mfg can replace it. Will that cost me the flat rate +? Will replacing the battery fix my problem?
Great CameraDec 05, 2007
Pros:
* Uses AA batteries and can take nearly 250 pictures without a flash on newly charged batteries.
* Outstanding picture clarity outdoors.
* Incredible pictures at night when set on a tripod or flat surface and using the timer. Can set shutter to stay open up to 15 seconds. Only Z2 & Z3 allow that -- later models only allow about 5 seconds.
* 10x zoom is awesome, and takes great pictures outdoors even when hand held without antishake technology.
* Hot shoe for adding a flash.
* Extremely easy to use. My 7 y/o takes great pictures and movies with it, can download and adjust to sepia or b/w all by himself.
* Camera is full of features: ISO 50-400, movies up to 800x600, night movie mode, auto or manual white balance, no special software or equipment needed to get pictures off camera, hook up to computer or tv for slideshow, 2 macro modes, multiple flash settings, burst mode, timer, sepia/b&w/vivid color/natural color modes, sharpnes & contrast controls, able to use additional lenses, etc.
* More rugged than it feels. It's our family camera -- used by little kids and adults. We've taken tens of thousands of pictures with it in all kinds of lighting and weather -- it's been dropped countless times -- and it still works faithfully taking great pictures.
* Uses SD cards.
Cons:
* When adjusting the zoom while taking a movie you hear the camera motor on the sound of the movie.
* No anti-shake technology. Available in the Z3 and up.
* Taking pictures indoors, in normal low light is a challenge sometimes.
I love this camera and am going to buy another Konica Minolta -- probably Z3.
