Minolta DiMage 7i Digital Camera
Introducing the new Minolta DiMage 7i 5 MegaPixel Digital Camera. Next-generation performance in an SLR-type digital camera puts 5 megapixel resolution and 7X optical zoom APO lens to work for you in ways you’ve never imagined. With the DiMAGE 7i, the emphasis is on fast as in 1/4000 second exposure and Ultra High Speed continuous drive bursts up to 7 frames-per-second, faster-than-ever autofocus and overall responsiveness. Features: Advanced technology gives the camera professional versatility. The DiMAGE 7i features a 3-point wide AF system for fast, accurate focusing, a Flex Focus Point for precise control over the focusing area and a Direct Manual Focus (DMF) to make instant adjustments to the autofocus. The DiMAGE 7i has expanded options for composition. The viewfinder and monitor displays have been expanded not only to show the status of the camera, but also the options of including a grid for aligning the camera to the horizon or vertical subject elements and a scale to judge image size in close-up photography. In addition, a real-time histogram is available to evaluate the effects of exposure and contrast on the image before it is captured. The new DiMAGE 7i is fast. In the program and the aperture-priority exposure modes, the shutter speed tops out at 1/4000s. The new UHS (Ultra High Speed) continuous-advance drive mode can capture approximately 7 frames per second to compete with most professional film cameras. The AF system is almost twice as fast as its predecessor, the DiMAGE 7, and the capturing interval has been reduced to make a more responsive camera. With new, extensive system accessories, the DiMAGE 7i is a serious photographic tool. The camera can be coupled with powerful shoe-mounted and off-camera flash units from portable camera strobes to large studio lighting systems. The new wireless/remote function allows slave control over the Minolta 5600HS(D) and the 3600HS(D) program flashed. Remote cables and standard 49mm filters can also be use
