I am an avid amateur photographer that needed a compact camera for vacations. I have always used manual focus SLR's so I was totally unfamiliar with auto anything. In making a decision on my purchase, I tried to stick with brand names. I was familiar with Canon products in the SLR arena and was always quite pleased. However, not wanting to put my eggs in one basket, I chose Minolta. WHAT A MISTAKE. The camera worked well for the first 3 months, taking brilliant color photos. After that it was down hill quickly. The camera would auto-advance the film went it felt like it, Would double and even triple expose frames, overlap frames, etc. I changed batteries, film types, and film brands in hopes of fixing the situation but none worked. In speaking with Minolta service center representatives I learned that the cost of even estimating the repairs was (...)not very cost effective. Turns out this is just an expensive disposable camera. I think I'll stick to Canon from now on.
I'll never buy another Minolta products again. January 11, 2001

Bought this camera around September. The first roll of film came out great. About halfway through the second roll I turned the camera on and the zoom came all the way out and the lights flashed etc. I returned the camera for repair and Minolta repaired it under warranty, great. Went through 2 rolls of film for Christmas, all blurry. Returned camera to Minolta explainingg the problem and they send me an estimate for $61.00 to fix it, saying that I dropped it. I can buy a new camera for that price. I'll never buy another Minolta product.

This camera has a lot going for it. It's easy to use, easy to understand, and easy to buy film and batteries for. I bought this camera as a gift for my sister and took a test roll of film with it. The pictures came back sharp and the flash worked perfectly. The only thing keeping this camera from getting 5/5 is it's minimum focus distance, about 6 feet.

I ordered this camera to be delivered to my vacation spot. It was and I was disappointed all the way. The camera was supposed to come with film and batteries, neither was in the box. The zoom was horrible. I went to reload a new roll of film and could not get the tab for the film to roll over to hook it on. I am returning it for a refund. I must say that Amazon is great with their customer service though.
