Konica Minolta DiMAGE X31 Review
|
Review Summary
The Konica Minolta DiMage X31 is a good 3.2-megapixel ultracompact camera geared to the novice shooter. If you're looking for razor-sharp images, this isn't the camera for you; nor is it particularly fast. Still, it's a good camera and far cheaper than most ultracompacts, including our Editors' Choice, the $500 (street) 5MP Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T1.

| The Minolta DiMAGE X31 is one of the latest in Minolta's line of subcompact DiMAGE X models, using a unique "folded" lens design to achieve a remarkably compact form factor and very fast startup times. Minolta really turned heads when they introduced the original DiMAGE X, now nearly three years ago. A two-megapixel camera in the form of a square block of metal, just barely over three-quarters of an inch thick, the DiMAGE X was an immediate hit, as popular as a fashion statement as it was for its status as a go-anywhere, shoot-anytime digital camera. The X20 was the first affordable version of this popular camera, reducing the price by enclosing the same mechanism in a plastic body. While the metal versions of the X-series have gone as high as 5 megapixel, the X31 is the first resolution bump at the low end, now to 3.2 megapixels. |
