    Good Points: Currently selling for £90 in Jessops, so it is awesome value for money!!
    Picture quality is very good.
    Lots of features.
    Great Zoom.
    Step up from compacts.


    Bad Points: Bit plastic.
    To large. Not a compact or a DSLR.


    General comments: The Konica Minolta Dimage Z1 is an excellent digital camera if want a little more than a point and press 3 x digi compact. It will provide a new world of photography, and shoot remarkably good pictures. This is the sort of camera that makes you want to buy a DSLR, as it gives you a taste of what photography is all about without having to spend 6 weeks learning the manual.

    I would recommend it to anyone wanting to get away from standard holiday snaps and start being a little creative!! And at that price there is nothing to touch it under £300!!

    I am a bit of a motorsport and airshow fan, so when I wanted a Digital Camera to compliment my Cannon EOS300 SLR, that I use with a 75-300 zoom, then there were quite a few to choose from, Kodak DX6490, Olympus C740, HP's 945, Toshiba PDR-M700, to name a few.

    I was very excited to be buying this Minolta Dimage Z1 digital camera, as it has so many features for a great price. However, there are many fundamental problems with it that should be sorted out for future models.

    The 10X zoom is brilliant, but that is about the only redeeming feature of this camera. It looks and feels awkward. The shutter release button is placed at a strange angle, and is difficult to depress without moving the camera - very bad for longer exposure shots.

    The camera is ...

    The Minolta Dimage Z1 was my first semi-serious camera bought on a tight budget. Although only 3.2MP the photo's are cracking, and the 10x zoom makes up for the rest! Good menu's and easy to use, would recommend to anyone with £300 to spend!
