Maxxum 7D SLR Camera Kit w/2.8-100 LensStrengths: Very nice camera, lens are interchangable with previous Minolta cameras Weakness: Lower pixils than many comprable cameras The 2.5 inch color monitor is a nice feature to review pictures that were recently taken. The Anti-Shake system is a nice plus which is not offered in other cameras. The 6.1 million pixel is lower than many similar priced cameras, but doesn't seem to be too much of a weakness unless you are printing very large formats. 86% of readers found this review helpful.

Konica Minolta MAXXUM 7D SLR
The Konica Minolta Maxxum 7D is arguably one of the most eagerly-awaited digital cameras announced in the last year or so. Minolta was one of the leading manufacturers of film-based SLRs back in the heyday of that format, in the early- and middle-1970s. As a result, there are literally millions of existing Minolta film SLR owners who have been waiting for a digital model to use their extensive... Top

DCRP Review: Konica Minolta Maxxum 7D
All things considered, the Maxxum 7D gets my enthusiastic recommendation. It was a real joy to use, and I was satisfied with its photo quality after increasing the sharpness a notch. If you've got a collection of Maxxum lenses laying around, you probably already have a Maxxum 7D. If you're new to D-SLRs the decision is more difficult, as the competition is fierce in this area. There are cameras... Top

Up close and personal: Konica Minolta Dynax 7D hands-on first looks
Konica Minolta's new DSLR us the first to integrate an anti-shake system into the camera body. This means any lens fitted will benefit from anti-shake. We took the 7D to a major sports event to find out just how well this camera worked. Top

7D /w/ kit lens
Strengths: A/S; fastest digital camera I used; image second to none with the 2.5" view
Weakness: with the $200 rebate--NONE
I've only had this camera for a few day now but with each day I'm loving it more. Using it with the SanDisk 1G Extreme III CF card, it's by far the fastest digital camera I've used. The KM 28-100 kit lens is a very nice addition. Of course it's not in the same class as your APO's--but a nice light 'carry around' lens for a lot less money. All of the photos taken with this lens have been way above average quality. The only thing that I can see that's not above average is it's a little show AF in low light and a little soft on the edges wide open. But stop her down and she take very nice photos. It's the first time I bought a "kit" lens with any SLR camera because I've heard, like everyone else, that kit lens aren't any good. I think this one proves 'em wrong. Unless you already have glass in the same focal, I personnal think it's worth the few extra bucks.
