from American Heartland Summary: I became a big pain in the rump to my family when I purchased a FujiFilm A330 digital camera last year. I was constantly photographing them, tweaking the photos on my PC, and sharing them with relatives. Well, as annoying as I was then, I am several times as annoying now that I've purchased the Minolta Maxxum 4 35mm SLR. This is the first SLR I've owned, so don't expect an expert opinion here, but I will say that if far outperforms my digital. I'm not even using it anymore. The 35mm prints simply look better. Honestly, I thought my digital camera had awesome photo quality, but film, despite those who say it is doomed to obsolescence, is still better. I plan on using this Minolta until film is no longer available, or until it becomes prohibitively expensive. Hopefully by then digital cameras will have improved enough to match the quality of film. Strengths: Great autofocus. Tons of features, including ones I don't even understand. Very easy to use. Excellent photo quality. Very light and compact. Weaknesses: The camera and lens are both plastic. But what isn't these days? Similar Products Used: N/A Customer Service: N/A
