Digital Cameras - Minolta DiMAGE Z1 Digital Camera Review, Information, Specifications

 

Based on my testing, I can confidently say that the Minolta DiMAGE Z1 is one of the best bargains on the market for a long-zoom digicam. I was quite impressed though, with the way the Z1 combined a novice-friendly design with a surprising array of...

Minolta DiMAGE Z1

 

The Minolta Dimage Z1 is a space age looking camera and worth consideration if you are looking for a good mid level camera. The feature that stands out to me is its 10x optical zoom. The lens itself is said to be top quality and very quick auto...

The Minolta DiMage Z1 is only 3.2 megapixel which is adequate but in comparison to other SLR style digital cameras recently released its pretty average. Having said this its reasonably priced considering its excellent range of features

Minolta Dimage Z1

 

I've had this camera for several years, and while the 3.2 megapixels may seem small, it still takes great, high-quality photos.

This camera was a great buy for me.
