DPReview Reviews Konica Minolta DiMAGE A2
DPReview have just reviewed the new 8-megapixel Konica Minolta DiMAGE A2 digital camera.
“The DiMAGE A2 takes the A1 design and increases the resolution to eight megapixels. The A1’s primary unique feature (among many other good design features) is the Anti Shake system which works by stabilizing the sensor on a movable platform instead of moving any of the lens elements. This ingenious solution works, and still works on the DiMAGE A2 although I personally didn’t find it that useful in 90% of everyday shooting situations (your mileage may vary). Konica Minolta were at pains to stress that the DiMAGE A2 shouldn’t be seen as a simple ‘drop the sensor in’ upgrade and that many things under the hood have been modified, upgraded and fixed.”
