Guide Review - Minolta DiMAGE 7 Digital Camera

The DiMAGE 7 is a quality professional digital camera. The features allow creative control while shooting and, thanks to the RAW file format, while editing as well.

This camera has a larger camera body than most others in its class, but this has one big advantage. It’s size makes it easier to stabilize your shots, especially when you’re using a long exposure while hand holding the camera. The well-designed contour SLR style grip makes it easier to maintain a steady hand while shooting.

The Minolta GT lens is higher quality than most digital lenses, and is even superior to Minolta’s lenses for film cameras. In addition, the Dimage 7’s impressive zoom is much more powerful than most others in its class.
