Not flawless, but an excellent performer/value

Date of Review:  Mar 31, 2004
The Bottom Line: While not a flawless effort, this camera is still an excellent value whose pros considerably outweigh the cons.
Review: EXTREMELY IMPORTANT NOTE:

I bought my Minolta Dimage G500 in March of '04. In July of '04, I had the camera in my pants pocket and the sliding door must have been bumped over, allowing the lens to come out. While the lens was unknowingly...

Very Nice Camera, POOR Customer Service

Date of Review:  Jul 16, 2004
The Bottom Line: Nice camera that will do almost anything one wants. Not recommended for newbies though. Because of Minolta's poor customer service I can't recommend this to anyone.
Review: I like the camera a lot, and with all the different settings available you can tweak it to almost no end. The camera takes great pictures and is actually easy to use considering all the settings one can do. It's the perfect size to be able to carry...
