Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Minolta Maxxum HTsi is a full-powered compact 35mm SLR camera. This is an SLR body that has been reconditioned and fully tested by Minolta at the factory. As a reconditioned item, it carries a 6-month factory warranty and should appear as new. It features a newly developed three-point AF sensor configuration. This technology consists of two vertical sidebars and a central crosshair-shaped segment. The built-in flash is powered by the camera battery. The flash provides coverage up to 28mm, with synch speeds up to 1/125 seconds. It can be used in all four exposure modes and features a selectable red-eye-reduction preflash. The flash is fully synchronized with shutter speeds up to 1/4,000 seconds.

In addition to a full-auto mode, the Maxxum HTsi offers five subject program modes: portrait, landscape, close-up, sport/action, and night portrait. For creative exposure control, Minolta provides aperture and shutter priority modes. In manual mode, you can take full creative control over the image-making process by selecting both the shutter speed and aperture. Functions such as spot metering, slow-shutter sync, exposure compensation, exposure bracketing, double-exposure mode, panorama mode, and a remote release terminal increase the HTsi's flexibility.

To catch action shots, the HTsi has two-frames-per-second continuous film advance driven by the camera motor. The control layout is simple and logical, so beginners and professionals alike can work quickly and successfully. This is a reconditioned camera and comes with a handy carrying strap and a 6-month warranty.

This review is from: Minolta Factory-Reconditioned Maxxum HTsi 35mm SLR Camera (Body Only) (Electronics)

In the lightweight category this rates high about 8, while the 2 Minolta cameras rate a 7(xtsi andQtsi)>I was told to buy the best body affordable and when I saw this refurbished model for less than the other 2(above)--amazon and Minolta stand behind it least for6 months. Maxxum 5 is on the horizon it includes depth of view preview which others do not it is lighter and upgrade in some areas to compete with cannon 2000, likeHTis plus does also. Buy it or wait for Maxxum 5(12ounces)
