Summary: Amazing Camera!
Review: Although I have never owned an SLR camera before this one, I have found it incredibly easy to use and to capture beautiful pictures. After looking at many other models and planning to purchase one myself, I was surprised to recieve this camera for Christmas. Though I am only a beginner and have only used the camera for a short time, I am already beginning to learn the basics of expert photography and am even starting to take advantage of the creative genius my camera allows me to possess, while still producing an expert, clear, crisp photograph. The instruction manual is clear and precise, the design fully functional and ergonomic, and the LCD panel a helpful addition to an already excellent model. I recommend this camera to any beginner looking for an inexpensive, high quality SLR camera.

Summary: Information needed
Review: I have bought a Minolta Maxxum 4 about an year back. It's a good camera. But unfortunately I have misplaced the product handbook of the same. I tried to search for the same in the website. Other than your site hardly I could find any other. But the manual is only 18 pages instead of 150 odd pages. Can you please help me?

Summary: A Great Choice for Beginners
Review: I have wanted a good SLR for many years, so after researching cameras for about a month, we decided to buy this camera. Not only is the price fantastic, it has so many options that a beginner can start with it using it as an auto-focus camera, but then be able to grow with it, exploring everything the camera has to offer as one's skill level increases. Even in the auto-focus mode, you have many options to get the look you want in your pictures. After getting this for Christmas I shot many rolls and they have all turned out beautifully, even pictures that I thought may have been too shaky, they still turned out well. This camera has me really excited because I know I will be able to use it for a long time and I will be able to learn a lot with it. Film is a cinch to load and the LCD panel is a great asset as well. It is light, easy-to-use and looks really cool! I definitely recommend this camera to anyone, not only beginners.

Summary: Minolta Maxxum
Review: I love this camera! I have barely taken any bad pictures. I only wish that the auto focus worked better, although I prefer manual focus anyway.

Summary: A Great camera!
Review: Just got it last week and totally fell in love with it! The reviews helped out on my decision not to mention the price! Went to a local store and noticed they had the 3 series for the same price! Great deal.

The only glitch was the eyepiece instructions. However just turn to page 117 in the manual to see how to slide the eyepiece up to attach the cover on the strap.

Great camera and great service!

Summary: I LOVE MY MINOLTA MAXXUM 4
Review: This is my first SLR camera and I am having so much fun with it. I take it everywhere. I read the manual front to back and was taking pictures with ease the same day. The only problem I ran into was figuring out how the eye piece protector cover on the neck strap fit into the eye piece on the camera for taking pictures with the auto timer. The manuals instructions did not work for this camera. After calling a local camera store to ask what I was doing wrong, they informed me that the rubber eye piece on the camera just slides off and the neck strap eye piece protector slides on in its place. Once I figured this out it was a breeze to do. I've had one roll of film developed so far & everyone is impressed with the picture quality. My brother has a Canon Rebel & personally I think my Minolta Maxxum 4 shoots better pictures. I love this camera!

Summary: Great, solid camera
Review: We bought this camera for amateur photos from our wedding in 2002. It is a solid piece with simple, easy to understand controls. Some of the shots from this camera looked better than the professional ones. We also took this camera to Paris for our honeymoon. Our photos were absolutely beautiful in both indoor and outdoor settings. I highly recommend this camera.

Summary: A Great Choice for Beginners
Review: We researched cameras for about a month before we decided on this one from Amazon.com. This camera truly gives you the most bang for your buck. It has many features found on more expensive cameras, so after you've become comfortable using the camera in autofocus mode, you can switch to fully manual and a whole bunch of other functions that I haven't even gotten to yet. I got this for Christmas and my pictures are wonderful. I shot about 12 rolls and they all turned out beautifully. There are the five autofocus modes that allow you to remain in autofocus and get the photo you want. I expect to have this camera for a long time, learning about it as my photography skills increase.
I highly recommend this camera to anyone looking to start photography with a camera that will grow with them.
