Beautiful Photos Every Time
2006-01-26
 |
| I LOVE this camera. I've had it for about three years now and I have yet to take a bad picture. They are all clear, crisp and beautiful. My brother has even asked me to take photos at his wedding next year because he loves my portfolio. This truly is a terrific camera. I won't go digital because I love this camera so much. |

Great camera
2004-09-28

| I bought maxxum 5 from amazon about 2+ years ago. There is almost no way to take bad pictures with this camera. I have taken pictures sharp clear and so professional looking that I was tempted to send them to National Geographic ! Anyway, I am not a professional photographer but have been using maxxum line (I had a 7000i) for quite some time. I love how small and light but yet ergonomic this camera is. You can handle this with one hand and still not risk shaking. Battery life is great. Along with this camera I also bought 80-300mm zoom lense from sigma. My camera was not the QD version, that is my only gripe. But that was my since I did not look for the QD version at the time of purchase. |

Another great minolta
2004-07-09

| I've had a series of minolta SLRs (5xi, 500si, etc), most recently the Maxxum 5. They've all been great and have all done very well for me. Features, sharpness, exposure, automatic and manual modes all just what I need. When considering the maxxum 5 I was initially worried about the comments about the size and whether my somewhat-large hands would be able to use it comfortably, so I checked it out thoroughly at a local camera shop before buying. no problem. It's light and relatively comfortable, and definitely feature packed, and most features are easy to learn and are accessible. I have a 28-80mm lens made by quantum that is also light and does well on this body. Also a straight 50mm for low-light and close-up, though the zoom actually does well enough to handle almost all situations I need, even some floral close-ups. FWIW, I'd probably be classed as an advance amateur.
I've taken photos for many years now. |

Great Beginning Camera

| I love my Minolta Maxxum 5. The auto features make this camera easy to use and easy to get great pictures as a novice. Being able to switch individual features to manual also make it easy to learn how to use a 35mm SLR. My camera goes everywhere with me and has held up well. This camera is a lot of fun to use. |

Light camera, average results!
2003-12-11

I had Dynax 7000i for quite some time, and since the body developed cracks, I replaced that first with Maxxum 4. But that particular piece would occasionally turn off immediately after being turned on. So I returned that and bought Maxxum 5, with Vectis-1 flash. I am sorry to day that I got results worse that Maxxum4, and both were not comparable to what I got with my old rusty trusty Dynax 7000i. The advantages are light weight and small size. I didn't fancy the eye start very much, as I use it mostly in manual mode. To use the D lens's strength, you need to have D flashes, which are not cheap. There is absolutely no vignetting. If you shoot in burst mode, then it doesn't disappoint you.
Final word - there are much better cameras out there for this price. |
