Product Description

 
The new DiMAGE Z3 features a 12x optical Mega Zoom lens, which can be combined with the camera's 4x digital zoom for up to 48x total zoom capability. The DiMAGE Z3's newly developed GT APO lens offers strikingly clear, high-contrast, high-resolution images thanks to Konica Minolta's G lens optical technology. The AD (anomalous dispersion) glass and two aspheric lens elements help the DiMAGE Z3 correct spherical aberration and curvilinear distortion, factors that can cause problems at high zoom ranges. The advanced, high-sensitivity 4-megapixel CCD combines with Konica Minolta's proprietary CxProcess(TM) II technology to give photographers images as beautiful as those they see with their own eyes.

Zoom, Zoom - Chapter Three The new Konica-Minolta Dimage Z3

Date of Review:  Oct 25, 2004
The Bottom Line: The re-designed Dimage Z3 couples the longest zoom currently available with the innovative anti-shake technology from K-M s upscale A series.
Review: The Long Zoom digicam market segment has long been dominated by Olympus and Fuji, but Konica-Minolta is quickly taking the lead in this rapidly growing and very popular marketing niche. The new Konica-Minolta DiMAGE Z3 has been completely...

Well, it's got nothing on a good film camera...

Date of Review:  Mar 18, 2007
The Bottom Line: It's a good camera, but certainly not a great one. The macro abilities of this camera are impressive, but it's average in almost every other area.
Review: Unless you're going to spend about $3,000 for a digital camera, just get ready to put up with something that's just almost as good as a quality film camera. That's just how it is, sadly, and the Konica Minolta DiMAGE Z3 digital camera produces...

Wasn't impressed, and now disappointed with Konica Minolta Z3

Date of Review:  Feb 7, 2005
The Bottom Line: Don't bother.
Review: Studies conclude that a single negative impression has five times the impact/residual effect as positive one.

I decided on this unit after 2 weeks of reading comparing reviews of over 40 digital cameras: 39+ competitors! A recommendation...
