5.24 megapixel SLR digital camera
Minolta DiMAGE 7i is designed to meet the needs of photographers wishing to have an SLR-type digital camera that performs under varying photographic conditions and features convenient functions that produce high quality photographic images.
Advanced technology gives the camera professional versatility.
The DiMAGE 7i features a 3-point wide AF system for fast, accurate focusing, a Flex Focus Point for precise control over the focusing area and a Direct Manual Focus (DMF) to make instant adjustments to the autofocus.
The DiMAGE 7i has expanded options for composition.
The viewfinder and monitor displays have been expanded not only to show the status of the camera, but also the options of including a grid for aligning the camera to the horizon or vertical subject elements and a scale to judge image size in close-up photography. In addition, a real-time histogram is available to evaluate the effects of exposure and contrast on the image before it is captured.
The new DiMAGE 7i is fast.
In the program and the aperture-priority exposure modes, the shutter speed tops out at 1/4000s. The new UHS (Ultra High Speed) continuous-advance drive mode can capture approximately 7 frames per second to compete with most professional film cameras. The AF system is almost twice as fast as its predecessor, the DiMAGE 7, and the capturing interval has been reduced to make a more responsive camera.
With new, extensive system accessories, the DiMAGE 7i is a serious photographic tool.
The camera can be coupled with powerful shoe-mounted and off-camera flash units from portable camera strobes to large studio lighting systems. The new wireless/remote function allows slave control over the Minolta 5600HS(D) and the 3600HS(D) program flashes. Remote cables and standard 49mm filters can also be used.
The DiMAGE 7i makes composition easier. The LCD monitor and Digital Hyper Viewfinder have been improved for easier viewing and more accurate color rendition. These are housed in a durable magnesium-alloy body with a rich, new finish and comfortable new grip.
Increased control over the image allows for more special effects.
The Digital Effects Control (DEC) and the Digital Enhanced Bracketing gives the photographer control over saturation, contrast and exposure, as well as new control over color. A new filter effect has been added to the DEC so that color images can be made warmer or cooler; and black and white images can be toned. This offers unparalleled creative freedom when combined with the two new color modes: Vivid Color and Solarization.
New movie modes allow the DiMAGE 7i to capture a moment with ease.
The DiMAGE 7i can record high-quality 16-bit audio with still and moving images. Along with standard QVGA digital movies, three new movie functions have been added. Night movies allow monochrome images to be recorded in low light. Time –lapse movies capture the imperceptible motions of the world. The UHS continuous advance movies show unfolding events.
Includes 4 NiMH batteries and charger
