Aimed at advanced amateurs and photographic enthusiasts, Konica-Minolta
DiMAGE A200 offers an attractive combination of features at an attractive price. Incorporating Anti-Shake mechanism, a 7x optical manual zoom lens,
full manual controls, and a flexible LCD screen, A200 is an extremely versatile camera that delivers extremely high image quality. The new Konica
Minolta DiMAGE A200 borrows a great deal from the design of the DiMAGE A2, but streamlines the body and omits some of the features of the A2 while
enhancing others. Main differences lie in the non-movable EVF (the A2 had a tilting EVF), a new swivel LCD monitor, a 4x interpolated digital zoom
option, and a larger maximum movie resolution (800 x 600 pixels), among a long list of other minor changes.
