Konica Minolta DiMAGE Xg
If you want a small, easily pocketed, yet stylish digicam the Konica Minolta DiMAGE Xg might be the one for you. Opening the box and hefting this little beauty for the first time makes a real impact. The wife has the original ‘X' version of this. The...
Ultra-compact and stylish design, neat ‘folded’ optical ‘periscope’ zoom lens, great image quality
Red and blue pixel fringing at extreme edges of images, small size makes handling fiddly
Overall, given the camera's sheer must-have design, its nice build and generally good image quality, the Xg is shoe-in for anyone wanting a small, stylish digicam with enough resolution for reasonably sized prints.

Minolta Dimage Xg
Minolta Dimage Xg Review and Where to Find the Best Prices. A pocket sized digital camera with a square shaped body. It has three megapixels and a three times optical zoom lens.
This really is a camera that will fit in your pocket. If your looking for a stylish camera this one deserves serious consideration.

Konica Minolta Dimage 5400
You'll get nice, high-resolution scans from this scanner, but the 5400 has a few problems that detract from its overall rating.
High resolution; solid scan quality.
Hard-to-use software interface needs work; slow scan-adjustment tools; lacks version of Digital ICE.
This is a great entry-level film scanner for advanced amateurs, but it's not quite ready for pros.

Konica Minolta Dimage Xg
Snapshot photographers looking for portability, ease of use, and style won't go wrong with this sleek little camera.
Compact and slim design ; Easy to use ; Fast ; Good battery life ; Cool automatic features ; Good image quality
No macro mode ; Flash blowout for tight close-ups ; Limited manual features ; Controls may be uncomfortable for large hands
We were generally pleased with our test shots. From skin tones to bright blue skies, the Dimage Xg delivered realistic colours, although they were a little less saturated than we like. Without a dedicated macro setting, the Dimage Xg focuses only as...

Digital Cameras - Minolta Dimage Xg Digital Camera Review, Information, Specifications
This year, Minolta has introduced the fourth update to the popular "X" line, the DiMAGE Xg. The new model takes last year's 3 megapixel "Xt" upgrade, keeping an almost-identical body, adding several new features and removing in-camera battery charging...
The front of the camera holds the lens window, flash, optical viewfinder window, and self-timer lamp. A shutter-like, retractable lens cover protects the lens window whenever the camera is powered off, sliding quickly out of the way when the camera is...
