The A200 is the last of KM bridge mount digital cameras in the pro-sumer market. It has a 8m pixel CCD and 28 to 200 (35mm equivalent) manual zoom lens - much better than a motor driven lens which tend to have noticeable "stops".
Although fairly big (not quite as big as a D-SLR) and quite heavy, the range of functions available from fully automatic to fully manual with a number of programme modes in between means that you get pretty much all the benefits of a D-SLR in a smaller, more convenient package. It's no pocket camera however.
A number of items standout:- the excellent quality lens (which has very little barrel distortion or vignetting) and which can take both wide-angle and telephoto adaptors the multi angle display which makes self portraits (with remote) or taking pictures from unusual angles (like above heads in a crowd) a doddle, the range of functions and adjustments and finally the superb anti-shake which allows you to take crystal clear photographs in low light conditions without flash.
I've only noticed 2 drawbacks so far. The EVF is not the highest quality which can make things difficult in low light or for manual focus and on standard colour and white balance settings, colours under grey sky conditions can seem quite drab (which can be overcome by changing the standard settings).
Overall an excellent camera which can still be bought at a bargain price
Advantages: Compact, lightweight, Good zoom range, Good macro feature, picture quality Disadvantages: manual focusing difficult, Konica Minolta ceased making cameras
I have found this camera is very simple to use with a clear manual. Pictures which I mainly shoot at 'fine' quality with auto focusing are technically excellent. However, I find manual focusing difficult on this camera as the viewfinder only provides digital image and the digital manual focus seems quite imprecise. I have found the processing time on this camera to be so much faster than other cameras I have used although when using flash the delay ...

Manufacturer's product description
The DiMAGE A200 is a portable 8.0-megapixel SLR-type high performance digital camera that's perfect for everyone from novices to camera enthusiasts. Equipped with Anti-Shake technology, a CCD-Shift mechanism that can reduce handheld camera shake. Easy to capture sharp images, even in low lighting and without the use of a tripod. With the rotating 1.8-inch TFT Vari-Angle LCD monitor, the photographer has always got a clear viewpoint for shooting artistic angles or taking flawless self-portraits. What's more, the DiMAGE A200's simplified operation means that everyone can make use of its advanced specifications that maximize picture taking opportunities and the fun of photography. The 2/3-inch CCD with 8.0 million effective pixels and the high-performance Konica Minolta GT APO lens combine to give incredibly faithful smooth-toned colors. With its new advanced LSI engine and CxProcess III image-processing technology the DiMAGE A200 delivers high speed and stress free image processing with low power consumption. Its ability to suppress noise and give exceptionally accurate color reproduction means that users still get high-quality images every time. Even novice users can avoid blurry pictures thanks to the proprietary Anti-Shake technology that employs a unique CCD-Shift mechanism. This stabilizing system is connected directly to a CCD sensor that quickly responds to camera shake thus producing finer images in dim light and with telephoto shots. Especially helpful when using the 4x digital zoom (maximum equivalent of 800mm) and high-performance 7x optical zoom (28 to 200mm). The DiMAGE A200's Anti-Shake technology is activated with the simple touch of a button. Its three focusing areas: Wide Focus Area, 11-point Selectable AF Area, and Flex Focus Point, combine in the DiMAGE A200 ensure that the subject is always in perfect focus. A newly employed Vari-Angle TFT color LCD monitor can be rotated up to 270° vertically and 180° horizontally, allowing unrestricted shooting at high and low angles. The multi-functional wireless remote control included with the DiMAGE A200 makes it easier to take self-portraits and movies whenever and wherever. And because the LCD gives a high speed, real-time view 60fps, there's minimal lag time between the on-screen display and the trigger of the shutter release. So there's no need to worry about missing a photo opportunity. The DiMAGE A200 allows the recording of movie clips in VGA mode (640 x 480 pixels at 30fps) for smooth true-color playback that rivals TV quality. SVGA mode (800 x 600 pixels at 15fps) which is ideal for viewing movies or movie stills on large PC screens. This gives users the freedom to choose the screen size and frame rate that suits their needs. Recording high-quality movies is even easier with Anti-Shake technology constantly minimizing image blur.
light, ease of use, great in-camera editing, cheap, batteries are buyable everywhere,
