DIMAGE G600 Digital Foto 6.0
The high-performance and compact six-megapixel Konica Minolta DiMAGE G600 features 3x optical zoom lens, sleek metal exterior, autofocusing, autoexposure, auto white-balance, and Rapid Response with a 1.3-second start-up time.
High picture quality is obtained through the camera’s GT HEXANON lens that’s designed to produce stunningly accurate images. These images are then received by the 1/1.76-inch 6.40-megapixel CCD, which provides high-resolution picture quality unexpected from such a compact camera. The result is beautifully detailed images across the entire zoom range in a slim, pocketable design. Completing the process, high-resolution images are assured with precision processing provided by the newly developed A*IPS – using Konica Minolta's proprietary algorithm, which instantly calculates optimum exposure, focus and white balance.
The DiMAGE G600’s newly developed Signal Processing Engine enables a speedy 1.3-second start-up time that has the camera ready to use at a moment’s notice. This is further enhanced through speedy image processing that greatly reduces the interval between pictures. In addition, pictures can be magnified up to 14.7 times on the camera’s LCD panel by using the high-speed scroll feature. By magnifying a portion of a picture after shooting, photographers can conveniently and quickly double check focus or subtle expressions while the subject is still present.
The new DiMAGE G600 is PictBridge* compatible for printing pictures without having to use a computer. The camera’s dual card slots (Memory Sticks and SD Memory Cards) facilitate transferring of both still and moving images to other media, and Memory Sticks can be plugged directly into Sony computers. Advanced users can fine-tune colors and create special effects with the camera's many functions, allowing photographers to fully express their artistic vision. The camera’s macro mode allows photographing objects just 2.4 inches away (on the widest angle setting).
As a third addition to the Konica Minolta DiMAGE G series of digital cameras, the DiMAGE G600’s exterior design and placement of controls has been redesigned. Stainless steel and aluminum design elements combine to create a modern, yet timeless design, with ergonomically placed controls that users will feel right at home with – all efficiently packaged in a pocketable 3.7 (W) x 2.2 (H) x 1.16 (D) inches.
The DiMAGE G600 is not restricted to only taking still photographs. 320 x 240 XR (Extended Recording) movies with audio can also be made. Likewise, audio can be recorded by itself or attached to a recorded still image.
