Summary: The 4MP Konica Minolta DiMage Z3 is easy to use and has a 12X optical zoom lens with antishake capability. But image quality and performance are subpar relative to the competition. Read the full review
Pros: ; A 12X optical zoom lens with antishake technology makes it easy to get close to distant subjects. Excellent real-time histogram. Easy-to-use exposure compensation.
Cons: ; Our test daylight pictures exhibit a strong orange shift. Flash shots were underexposed, dull, muddy, and noisy. Relatively slow boot and recycle times. No recharger or rechargeable batteries included.
