Minolta 5D

[Jesmol]

Anybody else out there got a KM 5D ???? I just bought mine a couple of weeks ago, and am still getting on top of it.

Any tips on getting the best out of them ?

and this is the reason why I wanted to get a better camera.:D

That's a great reason.... I've used that before to rationalize the camera as well. :wink

I assume you know about the dpreview KM DSLR forum? Lots of 5D owners there.

I also am a new owner of one, but already used Minolta's classic SLRs....
I always shoot RAW (like I already did with Dimage 7Hi) to get the best out of the pics, so most of the rest are tips that also apply to non-digital photography.
I am very positively impressed with it, especially for the 'all-lenses' integrated Anti-shake feature, excellent pic quality, great number of features with easy access and low-battery comsuption (the 7Hi ate them!).

Feel free ask if there is anything specific you would like to know!
