...repaired.After some enquiries,i found that Minolta has a repair Service Centre in Milton Keynes.You can send the camera to them at your expense but as the situation was urgent i took the 45 minute drive to the Service Centre.The Staff were very friendly,but told me there was a 2 week wait for the repair.I explained my situation and they were happy to twist the rules for me,and i was able to pick up the Phone on our way up to Scotland for our Holiday.Included ... ...which had taken the brunt of the fall was also replaced and the Camera was given a 'Service'.It was like i received a new Camera.

Advantages: Amazing picture quality, easy to use Disadvantages: None
The minolta has stormed onto the market showing off its 5million pixels and 3 times optical zoom whilst maintaining a small shell!
5 million pixels? well each picture is broken down by little dots and stored digitally, these are called pixels, if there isnt enough pixels to fill the picture gaps form between the pixels causing a lack in detail(fuzzyness), so the benefit of 5 is you can have a larger picture!
3x optical zoom? well there is two types ... ...off. The lens is a Minolta own with a 3.5-5.6 aperture. Zoom wise the camera does about 35-105mm in zoom. This camera also features a completely manual mode so you can set the aperture shutter speed and focus. Quality settings range from taking a .6million pixel picture to 5, also there is a uncompressed tiff picture format which allows the user to print a very large photograph. Usability, very simple you can learn how to use it without the instruction ...

Advantages: great quality pictures, range of options Disadvantages: slow start up
...contatcted Minolta but the estinate for repair was more than the cost of replacing the camera with a better model (the price of progress). I will miss it but the replacement is smaller, lighter, faster and has better quality - for less than my initial purchase price for this camera. ...

Advantages: point and shoot simplicity with good results Disadvantages: small lense doesn't allow enough light in so relies on the flash alot.
this camera is in its element when you are shooting in bright sunny climates. the standard settings are spot on for most situations when shooting out side in good conditions. if you have the patience the camera settings can be over ridden in manual mode and you can get very creative with your exposures. the only downer is the lense is quite small and therefore relies on the flash in low light situations and there is no hot shoe to mount and external ... ...400 quid and it gets great results. in my opinion you can't go far wrong with this camera, it is worth every penny. if you want large prints then you will need a large memory card to hold 5megapixel shots or you will limit yourself to just a few shots! ...

Advantages: good image quality, nice size, can be as basic or complex as you like Disadvantages: not really that many! the av outlet has a rubber rather than plastic flap on it if i'm being picky
...trust minolta more and after reading reviews decided it had a lot more features than the p12 and was smaller than the canon.
I'd recommend this camera to anyone wanting a camera small enough to take everywhere but also with the manual features to be a bit more creative. ...
