Minolta Dimage 5 3MP Digital Camera w/ 7x Optical Zoom

Average rating: Stars
Stars More batteries please
I use this camera primarily for work. I work for a university and take pictures of large agricultural studies, etc. I need high res. pics. to blow up for powerpoint presentations and posters. I like using this camera for all the manual options that one has, and the great optical zoom. When taking pics. on the highest quality and res. I can blow them up to 16 x 20 for a poster with no problems. A solid camera that takes high quality images. The only problem, and this is a big problem, is battery life. I went out and purchased the highest quality rechargeable batteries I could find and I still will only get 15-20 pics on the highest settings (and that is not using the lcd monitor). I realize that taking smaller images will decrease the energy used to write the file to the flash card, but when you have to take quality images.....This makes the camera useless for traveling (unless you want to bring lots of batteries) and routine use. I bought this camera a few years ago 2001/2002 and could not recommend one buying this now with all the options available to you. I am in the market to replace this now with a digital slr package.

Stars Nice little camera,for a little while.........
Had my Dimage 5 for about a year,and mostly was impressed.It took
good pictures in bright light,but was difficult to use in low light.Took it to Mexico on vacation and got caught in a rainstorm.The camera got wet,and stopped working.I assumed it would start again as soon as I got it dried out,but it did not.Sent it to Minolta for repair,and was told it was economically not repairable.Paid 600.00 for it,got it wet once,goodbye camera.Now its useless.Not even heavy enough for a boat anchor!If you have one,keep it dry!

Stars Buyer Beware
I bought my Dimage-5 last Spring and it had a defective battery compartment. The defect was obvious... The first battery powered images I got are summertime of 2002.

If it had worked "out of the box" I would rate this a four star camera...
