art and memories. That's what you can do with the

new DiMAGE X1 from Konica Minolta.

The DiMAGE X1 boasts the highest number of

effective pixels of any compact digital camera on the

technology that helps you capture clear,

crisp shots every time you shoot. The result

is a compact digital camera unlike any

The DiMAGE X1. A camera

designed to offer you more fun,

more creativity, and more

freedom to express yourself.

Stylish, sleek, slim body

want to hold it in your hands. Clad with a half-mirror

panel and mirror-finish luster*1, the rounded body

is a sheer delight to hold. The DiMAGE X1 is slim—

just 19.5 mm deep—and it comes in a choice of

three attractive colors*2.

Beautiful to look at, comfortable to hold, a pleasure

to use. The DiMAGE X1 offers the kind of indulgence

you'll appreciate every time you shoot.

Capturing the Essence — 8 Megapixels and CxProcessTM III

Start with an effective resolution of a huge 8 megapixels. Add CxProcess III, a

technology that reproduces images as naturally as they appear to your eye. And

combine it all with a GT Lens that clearly renders even subtle textures of a subject and

the atmosphere around it.

What you get is the Konica Minolta DiMAGE X1, a camera of rare expressive power.

With the DiMAGE X1, prints can be enlarged to around A4 size with the same 300-dpi

resolution as film photos, and to around A3 size at 200 dpi.

New 1/1.8-inch CCD for 8 Megapixels Clarity

For higher image sensor resolution, the DiMAGE X1 is

equipped with a CCD that’s one size larger than those

found in previous models. Furthermore, the CCD

package itself is smaller, making it possible to give the

DiMAGE X1 body a slimmer profile.

A Host of High-Performance Functions

1X 3X 12X

High-Resolution VGA Movie Clips Enhanced by Anti-Shake

The DiMAGE X1 can record smooth, high-resolution VGA (640 x 480 pixels)movie*1 at 20 frames per second with sound. Electronic Anti-Shake technology*2

helps ensure clear, sharp pictures, while autofocus mode lets you simply concentrate on the shooting. You can use the 3x optical zoom to capture closershots with no image degradation. The DiMAGE X1 even has a Night Moviefunction for use in dim lighting.*1 It can also be switched to record 320 x 240 pixels at 20 per second.*2 The picture frame becomes slightly smaller than when shooting still photos.

Customizable Controller Key for Quick, Easy Operation

You can assign the functions you use most often to the up-down and right-left positions of the controller key. This makes operation quicker and easier -- justtouch the key to access the assigned function. You can assign keys for the drivemode, exposure compensation, white balance, and camera sensitivity.

Non-Protruding Flat 3x Optical Zoom Lens Plus 4x Digital Zoom.

Extensive design considerations were made by Konica Minolta whencreating the DiMAGE X1. The DiMAGE X1 introduces a newly designed "flat" 3xoptical zoom lens (35mm equivalent: 37 to 111mm) that bends the incoming light90 degrees, allowing the zoom operation to take place inside the camera. Thelens doesn't protrude when zooming, so the camera maintains its slim, stylishform. The DiMAGE X1 also adds a digital 4x zoom, so you get a total of up to 12xzoom power.

More Shooting Freedom and Flexibility — Anti-Shake

Konica Minolta's Anti-Shake technology makes it easy to capture clear, steady shots of

scenes that in the past were extremely difficult when the camera is hand held.

Anti-Shake is great in a number of situations and enhances your creativity. It delivers

superior results with telephoto and macro shots, of course. But Anti-Shake is also ideal

when you're taking wide-angle, handheld shots in dim indoor lighting, with a shutter

speed as slow as 1/6 of a second* at wide-angles.

* Actual settings vary with shooting conditions.

Compact, High-Performance Anti-Shake System

For sharp images, the DiMAGE X1 introduces a new

system that moves the lens unit according to the shaking

that can result from handheld shooting. This new

compact CCD package enables the DiMAGE X1 to

maintain a slim, compact body without sacrificing optical

performance.

Anti-Shake : OFF

Anti-Shake : ON

Portrait: Reproduces skin tones beautifully; captures

even strands of hair or eyelashes in clear detail.

Super Macro: Allows super close-ups up to 5 cm of

the subject, so the subject literally fills the frame.

Landscape: Captures all the natural beauty of a

landscape.

Sunset: Faithfully reproduces the reds in a sunset.

Night View: Lets you capture natural-looking shots

of nighttime scenes and lighting, without using the

flash.

Night Portrait: Lets you take great shots of people

in the evening and when subjects are set against

evening skies.

Text: Clearly reproduces characters on white

backgrounds. Ideal for shooting a memo for example.

Super Macro for Powerful Close-Ups Up to 5cm

Bring your lens up to 5cm of a subject and snap off a vivid, super close-up thatfills the entire frame. The Super Macro mode lets you capture artistic close-ups offlowers or other small objects.Also, in normal shooting mode you can take shots with the lens as close as 10 cmto the subject at the wide-angle setting or 40cm at the telephoto setting, so youdon't even have to switch to SuperMacro mode. That makes it easy tocatch a quick close-up before theopportunity slips away.
