The Konica-Minolta Dimage A2 Best choice in the new eight megapixel prosumer digicam class?

Date of Review:  Mar 21, 2004
The Bottom Line: The new Dimage A2 is the ultimate incarnation of Minolta?s consumer darling, the DiMAGE 7 and a strong contender for the best-in-class.
Review: Right on the heels of Konica-Minolta's superb five megapixel Dimage A1 super-cam comes its eight-megapixel big brother, the new Dimage A2. The A2 (like the A1, Z1, and Z2) was designed by a savvy group of "out of the box" thinkers and imaginative...

Nice Pictures but Fussy Autofocus

Date of Review:  Oct 5, 2005
The Bottom Line: The Konica-Minolta A2 takes great pictures but is saddled with a weak flash and a fussy autofocus.
Review: I am smitten with digital photography. I bought my first digital camera, a Toshiba 1.3-megapixel model, in 2000, and used it extensively for both professional and personal photography. I traded up to a four-megapixel Toshiba camera in 2002 and took...

Super mock dSLR

Date of Review:  Nov 23, 2004
The Bottom Line: This camera is a great camera for both beginner and professional. It is excellent for the beginner who wants to enter the world of digital photography as a hobby.
Review: Ok, this camera is a mock dSLR To help you understand the benefits of this camera I need to tell you what SLR is (unless you already know then the review is next paragraph).SLR is probably the most saught after type of camera in the professional...

Strengths and weaknesses of the A2

Date of Review:  Mar 31, 2005
Review: This is a light, portable DZLR that is a wonderful point-and-shoot capable of sizable enlargements if care is used. All digital images benefit from post-processing, but this camera is capable of great flexibility using in-camera processing once the...

This is an excellent camera

Date of Review:  Apr 17, 2004
The Bottom Line: An exceptional camera. Bottom line, the results are superb.
Review: I have recently purchased the Minolta DiMage A2 digital camera here in the United Kingdom.

I have a compact FujiFilm Fine Pix as a snapshot digital camera and the results are okay, but nothing had prepared me for the sheer quality of the...

Minolta Dimage A2:Superior to the A1

Date of Review:  May 8, 2004
The Bottom Line: I would strongly recommend a good look at this very high quality Minolta before you buy. I would buy it again.
Review: This is the 4th digital camera for my family (Sony, Olympus & Panasonic). All were higher end with 10X zooms or greater, and this camera is generally far superior to the others. Photo quality is stunning, controls and menus are logical and become...

Great Looks and functions, suspect color, flat, muddy LCD

Date of Review:  May 26, 2005
Review: I bought one of these in November 2004. Since day one I have been suspect of this camera. The color is seldom on, the contrast is flat, the flash--unless you are less than 10 feet away shoots way too dark. I should have to work so hard using image...

8 Megapixel camera not ready for primetime

Date of Review:  Sep 17, 2004
The Bottom Line: Avoid all 8 mega pixel cameras, buy Canon digital rebel or Nikon d70
Review: I have owned Dimage 7 and Dimage 7hi before buying Dimage A2, this camera has major flaws, very soft images regardless of what settings you change on the camera, auto focus is out of focus more than %50 of the time, yellowish while in most shots...

Date of Review:  Apr 11, 2004
Review: I recently returned an A2 that I bought from a Wolf Camera store.

My first A2

2 years of experience with the A2

Date of Review:  Aug 21, 2006
The Bottom Line: For an enthusiast, one who wants a camera with options and owner involvement, this is a quality camera
Review: I have been using the A2 continuously since I purchased it in February 2004. I have not experienced the out-of-focus shots cited by others. I still have the same battery and it provides 200-300 photos consistently (I have a 1 GB and two 512K cards)...
