I think that Minolta DIMAGE 7i is one of the best cameras you can buy at the moment: it's reliable, very powerful, and it's resolution is fantastic!! The design is accurate and stylish but the dimension is a weak point. In fact it's quite heavy to carry around and almost impossible to put it in your pocket. This is not a camera for everyone; it's a camera for serious photographers, for someone that wants perfection from his / her pictures. You can choose different sizes and resolutions for your photos depending on the size of the memory card you are using. Uploading your photos on your computer is as easy as breathing; it only takes a few seconds for low definition pictures and a couple of minutes for high res. My advice ? BUY IT RIGHT NOW!!

I've got the Dimage 7, the previous model, so know what you mean about it being bulky! But I guess that's the price you pay for being a better photographer than other people who use point and clicks.
