Based closely on the Konica Minolta DiMAGE A2,
but with a couple of features less and in a more
compact and light form, the Konica Minolta
DiMAGE A200 features 8MP resolution, Anti-Shake
Technology, a Vari-Angle LCD monitor, and 7x optical
zoom lens.
With a top shutter speed of 1/16,000 sec., freezing
action is never a problem; more importantly, the
top shutter speed allows the entire aperture range
to be used for depth-of-field control. Bulb exposures
of 30 sec. are also possible.
The new 1.8-in Vari-Angle LCD monitor replaces
the swivel only one on the A2 and now rotates
270° vertically and 180° horizontally
making the Konica Minolta A200 great for taking
shots from a variety of different angles.
Both the LCD and EVF give a fast 60 frames per
second live view (for still recording; 30 frames
per second for movie recording), making for incredibly
smooth viewing of recorded images. It also reduces
the time lag in tracking moving subjects so users
can easily capture those crucial fleeting moments.
Other professional features: real-time histogram;
manual zoom ring; multiple AF modes; Subject-Movement
Predictive Focus Control; Direct Manual Focus
to fine tune focusing; simultaneous recording
in RAW and JPEG file formats; automatic flash
control when using external flashes.
Included is a wireless remote controller for
convenient shooting and playback of images on
a TV. Up to 15 min. movie clips can be captured
at 640x480 30fps or 800x600 15fps, with the zoom
enabled during movie shooting.
A wide range of optional accessories is available.
The A200 will appeal to advanced amateur / prosumer
photographers who desire a quality and professional
SLR-type digital camera.
Wide focus area, 11 point
selectable, Spot focus point; Flex Focus
Point control is available with the
spot focus point.
