  About time - Have Maxxum 7 already

  taking toolong to come out

PROS: advertised features and specs.are admirable.

  Collecting Dust

PROS: Anti-shake, nice Dynax 7 -like layout, big lcd, and if it's anything like it's film counterpart the autofocus will be second to none.

CONS: My Minolta lenses have been collecting dust since I brought a Nikon d70. I suspect many others have had to wait too long for this wonderful, but late, venture by Minolta. But i still want one... :)

  Finaly my new DSLR coming up

PROS: I thoutht Minolta would never come up with a real Digital camera. One things for sure. It's gonna be my new body soon. I started with the XG1, XD9, 8000i. And I loved them all.

CONS: It's a bit late.

  Advanced "IS" with High Quality lens will make me very happy. Patience is a virtue.

PROS: One "IS" device to use with all my High qulity lenses will rejuvenate my camera system with one stroke. My 600 f4 (as all my lens) will have 50% more strength. I'm pleased with the high quality minolta has provided in the past. I decided on the best bang for the buck a long time ago. I'm not disappointed. Not at all.
