Here are the nice little gifts from Suzanne...the Minolta Z1 with 10X optical
Zoom....and the nifty and tiny Sony Cybershot U30-half the size of a pack of
cigarettes or so!

The only nut your busting is yours by going to all the trouble to take what I
assume are photos of "things" and then take the time out of your day to post
the crap. Get a life dimwit.

Holy ironic loser, Batman! Mr. Loco is more obvious than the Penguin!

Bwahahahahahaa!

Forget it loco... the camera is a piece of garbage. If he thinks it's good,
let him alone.

Minolta Z1?? Better look up the reviews! It's better than my G2 and after one
use of it, I'm selling the G5 as well. It's focus and flash system are better
than any camera I've seen under 1K, including the G5 and high end Sonys.

His preoccupation with my nuts *is* a bit worrisome.

I was only worried that using that word might "peak" your interest.
And it did.

Digital Photography Review is probably the best place on the web to get real
info on digital cameras.
If you want a real camera get a Canon EOS 10D

Here is an interesting review from a DiMage Z1 owner. You will probably
relate to the Wal-Mart thing

Sadly, all of true HE reflex cameras are still second gen. units. Only
professional working photographer should bother with those. The truth is that
even a low cost Olympus D-360 takes fine pics. A G5 only does better if you
take the time to really learn the camera. For a boat-based unit, a Z1, Sony U30
or a weatherproof U60 or Stylus 400 make a lot more sense.
In the league of cameras costing under 1K, the Z1 offers a lot....10X optical
zoom, ability to shoot good quality video with sound, superior focus and
flash...for under 400.00.
Here's the end of the review...
Based on my testing, I can confidently say that the Minolta DiMAGE Z1 is one
of the best bargains on the market for a long-zoom digicam. I was quite
impressed though, with the way the Z1 combined a novice-friendly design with a
surprising array of advanced features to satisfy more expert users. The price
point, battery life, and shutter lag/cycle time performance are also
impressive. Minolta has a great track record for high-quality lenses on their
digicams, and the Z1's lens is no exception, turning in a better than average
performance for a long-zoom model, with good sharpness and low chromatic
aberration. The Z1's color was also very good, hue-accurate and appropriately
saturated, although I'd like to see it just a slight bit brighter. Contrast is
a little high, but a low-contrast option helps greatly on that score. All in
all, it's hard to find much to fault about the Z1, apart from the somewhat
"Buck Rogers"-styled case, which I don't personally care for. Highly
recommended

It's an ugly camera. There are better ones out there and they look better
and are more user-friendly. The one you got is fine, but it's clunky looking
to say the least.
