The Minolta Maxxum 7 isn't all that big of a camera actually. I assume the
M7D is about the same size as it's based on the M7. But at least the film
version was quite a bit heavier and larger then the *istD is. Bigger and
heavier is better as far as I'm concerned though.

Unfortunately, I expect that they
nses. I'm sure Pentax
will follow suit. It is a shame it can't be done with film cameras as
it
is achieved by moving the sensor and they would have to move the film
plane in our 35mm SLR's

Apparently the Hexanon lenses are very good indeed.
So I have heard. Konica made some very nice lenses but dropped the SLR
market for some reason.

Yes it does. Yes it will. Does anyone find it ironic that Konica left the SLR
market years ago and bought Minolta, who always had a better reputation and
larger
customer base to get back in.

awful isn't it. I wonder how long it will be till the Minolta part is
dropped and they will just be Konica. How could anyone say they are a
proud Konica owner :-(
