Good Points
Can take some pretty good photos in RAW mode with saturation set to +3 and Contrast set to +2. Don't even bother with jpeg format. Use in Program mode with iso set to 50 for general shots. Use aperture mode for landscapes. Telephoto is very good using Minolta 1.5x telephoto lens add on. Need good light though to avoid vignetting. So use in bright sun!!!
Bad Points
Dont use in jpeg - can get some colour casts.
General Comments
Konica Minolta Dimage A200 - This really is a camera that you have to use in order to learn. You need to use Rawshooter or Photoshop CS to process your photos into tiff files from where you can change to jpeg mode to print. Avoid high iso's at all costs as you will introduce camera noise if you are not careful. CS can overcome this.
