Konica Minolta DiMAGE Z3The second review of the new 4 megapixel Konica Minolta DiMAGE Z3 today comes from DCResource.

“The DiMAGE Z3 has a first-rate movie mode that’s one of the best on the market. You can record “fine quality” 640 x 480 video (with sound) at 30 frames/second until the memory card is full. A “regular quality” 640 x 480 mode as well as a smaller 320 x 240 size are also available. You can choose between 15 and 30 frames/second for any of those resolutions. The included 16MB memory card holds just 9 seconds of video at the highest quality sitting, so consider a larger card a requirement if you like videos.

The DiMAGE Z3 is one of the very rare cameras that lets you use the zoom lens during filming. Konica Minolta has designed the camera’s lens to move very slowly and quietly in movie mode, and the microphone placement is as far from it as possible. You do need to keep an eye on your fingers, as the microphone is close to a comfortable resting post for them. “
