Love This Camera

I have had this camera now for over a year and have taken pictures of grandkids, landscapes, concerts, etc. and have always gotten beautiful results. The video mode worked great at an Anne Murray concert my husband and I went to - picture and sound both had good quality. My son took it to Florida for his vacation, and was happy with all the pictures he took there. I agree that when you have 10x zoom you can't get a good focused picture, but other than that I have no complaints. In fact, my grand-daughter is graduating next week and is planning on taking digital photography in college, so I bought her a Z1 to start out with. As for the simplicity of use, I had no problem using it right out of the box and I am certainly no "pro" (my last camera was a 110 pocket)!!! For the money, I think this camera is super for the amateur photographer.

Good Camera for Amateurs

I am female and bought this camera to take to fiji (imagestation.com) for landscape pics in auto its fantastic point and shoot. However, at the family reunion all my people pictures were blurred and out of focus. why? you have to hold down the shoot button halfway to get the red square box that tells you its focused and then push the button all the way down for a fantastic picture. If I had read the book duhhhhhhhh! I would have known this. The only problem i have is that others cannot use my camera when I go on trips I am never in the picture, its confusing for others to use instantly.

Great!!

I received a Minolta Dimage Z1 as a gift from my Father. I hope all of the info. HELPS!

My Z1 is a 512 MB SD card which takes 309 Pictures @ 2048x1536 Fine Quality, or 491 pictures @ 1600x1200 Fine Quality, or 754 @ 1280x960 Fine Quality or last @ 2380 pictures @ 640x480 Fine Quality. At 1600x1200 Fine Quality I can take almost all 491 photographs with the flash with out changing batteries! My Batteries were the Rechargeable AA 2000mAh Ni-Cad, I have since changed to a 2700mAh Ni-Cad!

In Movie Mode with the 512 MB SD card it works out to 640x480 @ 30 Frames Per Second, it will give you a 7.41 minute movie, @ 15 FPS 15:10 Minute Move! AND also a movie to send over the Internet with the 512 MB SD card Movies @ 320x240 @ 30 FPS =12.16 minutes, or Movies @ 320x240 @ 15 FPS = 23.26 minutes. And last movie size and speed = Movies @ 160x120 @ 30 FPS =46.53 minutes, or Movies @ 160x120 @ 15 FPS = 85.57 minutes!

I print 4x6 inch pictures that were taken at 1280x960 Fine Quality and they come out equal to my 35MM Minolta. I have printed posters 20" x 30" at 2048x1536 Fine Quality with no blurring!!

I have used this camera in Snow to the Arizona summer heat and it has never failed! I have owned several digital cameras and would rate this Minolta Dimage Z1 9.8 out of 10.00!!!
