...I have had this camera for over a year now, and have taken loads of pictures with it. It has taken some excellent shots.
I have cropped and printed photos on A4 paper and they are excellent. 95% of the time the focusing is spot on, but sometimes it fannies around trying to get a lock, but then I am mainly taking pics of my children!
I have still yet to explore all of the features on it, but it has enough to keep most people happy, I am and I used to have a Canon T90 (which was excellent).
The lense is cracking, the zoom range covers 99% of the situations I shoot.
The flash is good, but I use the 3600 HSD on it, the wireless flash is great.
My main niggles with it are the limited continous shooting, the manual focus is hard to see if you have the image in focus.
But overall I recomend this camera to all users.
Tips for best...

Review of Minolta DiMAGE A1
...Bought the Nokia 5100 in order to have a sturdy cell phone with IrDA and HSD.
Cover:
The Nokia 5100 is made of the same sheet metal and plastic as any other phone underneath the cover, so we won't find any special sturdiness here.
The cover itself is made in rubber, which makes the keys quite hard to use (when e.g. writing SMS messages). The plugs for headset and poweramp in the bottom is protected by a rubber flap which will probably fall off after some use. Fortuneately the cover is easily switchable, which for reasons mentioned above could be required.
The software:
Generally speaking the software is good. The calendar is good and highly useable, as is most other features. Games are awful, mainly due to the LCD on which the colors and motions become blured.
The sound-, thermo- and calorie-meters are gimmicks with no real...

Review of Nokia 5100
Advantages: Tasty, light and fresh. A really good balanced beer. Disadvantages: A little more expensive than some beers.
...155 pubs and hotels, of which there are a mix of tenanted, leased and managed pubs. Not bad for a company started for £1,500 all those years ago.
If you?re looking for a St. Austell beer you may come across HSD (a strong beer at 5% ABV), Black Prince (a very black beer at 4% ABV) and Tinners (a traditional Cornish beer at 3.7% ABV).
~~~THE BEER.
***Background***
In 1992 CAMRA (the CAMpaign for Real Ale) launched a campaign to encourage more women to drink real beer (the campaign was based around Ninkasi ~ a 4,000 year old Sumerian Goddess of Beer). At the Great British Beer Festival (held at Olympia in London) promoted a list of beers that they hoped would appeal to lady drinkers. This list (which originally appeared on www.camra.org.uk) was:
Brains Dark - Cardiff - 3.5% alcohol by volume - dark brown mild, sweet mix...
Advantages: At least Ten !! Disadvantages: Less than that !!
...had a ride on one yet, but my photo was schemingly taken with one whilst I was on holiday?
Moving swiftly on to Number Four?.
Nail Varnish.
Yes, nail varnish is a turn on to MRANDREWSJK, I love it glittery, gloss or matt. Nails should never go out without a nice coat of varnish on them. You can?t imagine how happy I am to read a good op about Avon, but when I feel posh I will move up the price bracket a bit. There are particular ways nail varnish does turn me on, but I will not be forced into that here??ooooh all right then?..no better not.
Hmmmmm, hmmmmm, Number Three
Beer.
I like a pint, or two or three. Real ale is my favourite of course, and there is a Black Sheep Ale. Badger Beer. Spitfire. I?m feeling all funny like. My bestest bestest beer is St. Austell?. Looe, Polperro, Fowey and a pint of HSD, GRRREEEEEEAT. After...

...Minolta AF lens currently in production, so you can interchange to your heart's delight. There are also some other lens manufacturers, such as Tamron, Sigma and Tokina, who provide high-quality, Minolta-fit lenses as well.
Returning to the 'D' bit now...this means that the lens is compatible with Minolta's 'Advanced Distance Integration' system. Here's what Minolta say about it:
With a (D) lens Minolta?s ADI (Advanced Distance Integration) will ensure optimum flash metering?regardless of background conditions or subject?s reflectance characteristics. Used with Program Flash 5600HS(D), Program Flash 3600HS(D) or even its built-in flash, the Dynax 5 calculates a guide number based on distance from subject, ambient light/pre-flash
reflectivity of the subject and the background to determine the ideal amount of flash.
Essentially this...
