The Best I've Ever Owned, And This is Number 4Strengths: Anti shake, zoom, 2' screen, speed (my main reason for buying the Z5) good movies too Weakness: Needs a better flash, but all digital cameras do. WOW! It's almost like having my 35MM SLR again! I took some pictures at a relatives wedding with my Olympus C-700, and missed allot of shots because of it's lack of speed. Made me mad enough to go spend my money for a new digital camera. Parting with bucks is hard for me, so I did allot of research, and this one fit the bill. I installed a 133X SD card which I'm sure helped the speed too. IT'S...

DiMAGE Z5 from an avid hobbyist photographerStrengths: Zoom, Anti-shake, 5mp ccd, compact, easy to handle, quiet, customizable through menu, easy to use dial for picture types, and seems durable. Weakness: flash housing, shutter speeds This seems to be a very good camera for intermediate photographer. There is a lot for a beginner, and a pro would ask for more. The camera fits pretty good in the hand, and the grips are in the right places. The zoom is very quick and quiet. The flash housing is not the best. You have to pick it up to use and snap it back in place when you are done. Also, it should have longer shutter speeds for...

Quick Response; Easy to Use; Check out Sample ImagesStrengths: Fast Focus, Easy to Operate - can operate in one hand; 12x Zoom is incredible Weakness: I miss the lack of more wide angle - may have to get the wide adaptor next tax return time I bought this camera for backpacking. This is my first high quality digital camera. I am using it to replace my manual 35mm's. The z5 is very compact and lightweight, and I will save at least 2 to 3 pounds by leaving my 35mm's and lenses, and 10 to 20 film canisters at home. I have used the z5 on one backpack trip so far, taking 500 pictures, and couldnt be happier. All the controls are easy to...

Konica Minolta DiMAGE Z5 5 Megapixel Bridge CameraStrengths: 12x, Anit-Shake, 5MP, small for zoom, Quick to start/zoom. Did I mention 12x opticial zoom? Easy for a novice, like myself, to pick up and start taking decent picts with little to no training. Weakness: No RAW image mode, sometimes slower on catching the action shots than other times. I have missed a couple of good shots because of this lag. I found that both my wife and I were able to pick up the camera and start taking decent pictures right away. She did run into an issue, where she thought she got some pictures, but had not because she had only half-way pressed the button. To really learn/use everything that this camera can do, you need to spend some quality time with the well written manual. Love the ability to take decent sized...

Konica Minolta DiMAGE Z5 5 Megapixel Bridge CameraStrengths: 12x optical,5megapixel,fast autofocus,anti-shake which works very well when zooming at long telephoto, 35-430mm gives great flexability in range of shots,very comfortable grip,takes SD&MM cards. Weakness: not Much,Slower autofocus in movie mode but you don't buy a digital camera to make movies. This is my first experience with a digital camera.I've always used high end slr's. I was planning a trip to europe and bringing a mini dv camcorder and didn't want to lug a heavy slr with all the cumbersome lens changes.This camera covered all my range of shots with a 1 Gig Memory card gave me almost 400 shots in the highest resolution and fit with my mini dv in one small camera bag. very happy...

Konica Minolta DiMAGE Z5 5 Megapixel Bridge CameraStrengths: anti-shake technology, 12x optical zoom, fast focus capability, 640x480x30fps movie mode with audio, filters can be mounted Weakness: size (but what do you expect with a 12x zoom and my last camera was a Sanyo MZ3), very slow focusing in movie mode when zooming in/out, no audio memo with photographs, manual focus mode I purchased this camera as I was growing tired with the limited 3x optical zoom that was supported by my Sanyo MZ3. Though I've looked at the Canon S1, I finally decided with this camera since because of 5 megapixel images and 12x optical zoom. I've been using movie modes to replace carrying around my DV camera. Therefore, 640x480x30fps with unlimited recording duration was a must. The ability of...

Konica Minolta DiMAGE Z5 5 Megapixel Bridge CameraStrengths: 12X Zoom, Anti-shake (very good), rapid on, rapid focus in good light, great macro, small size for 12X, uses AA batteries. Weakness: Poor focusing in poor light (no light assist), color balance is off, cosumes battery power more than I though it would. I bought this camera for the 12X zoom and the anti-shake. And it takes great pictures in good light but it has real problems focusing in poor light and it won't let you shoot if not in focus. Recently, at a graduation with dim lighting (except on stage), I missed many pictures EVEN THOUGH THE FLASH WAS ACTIVATED. I pushed the release and nothing! (I have used a Kodak 6490 for about 18 months...

Konica Minolta DiMage Z5 Digital Camera Review
Konica Minolta released the DiMAGE Z5 at the Photo Marketing Association trade show in Orlando in February 2005. This digital camera targets intermediate users who have grown out of compact cameras, but are not quite ready to make the jump to digital SLRs. The 5-megapixel Z5 bridges the two types in shape and function. In a nontraditional frame, Konica Minolta packs 5.2 total megapixels on a... Top

Good overall camera
Strengths: Zoom, Overall ease of use, most everything
Weakness: Low light photos
Overall, this is a good camera. I was tired of the 3x optical zoom with my old camera, and this one is brilliant. You just can't zoom closer to things. The digital zoom obviously eats into the quality of the picture, but that is expected. This camera fits nicely with all the necessary controls in reach. Movie mode is rough when zooming, but that can be avoided by using the camera as a digital...
