5 out of 5 stars I am disabled and a photographer, this makes my life easier   June 21, 2000
 12 out of 18 found this review helpful

This camera is the best for me. I am disabled and have trouble with heavy items, see it's my hands and wrists that are disabled, so this camera REALLY helps! I have had three other Minoltas and love them. This one helps me because it is lite in weight, and offers both manual and automatic, which is great. Comes with a Zoom 28 - 80 lenz, which is so easy to use! Don't be scared to buy this one, it's a gem!


5 out of 5 stars Love this camera   July 7, 2001

When I was first looking for an SLR camera, I found a good deal on a Maxxum 300si. I used the camrea for a few days, and it got me hooked. I was happy with the 300si, but it was missing something, I wanted a camera with more flexibility. So I returned it and started looking around more. I came across the HTsi Plus, and it had all the features I was looking for. The pictures that this camera takes are incredible. I look for reasons to take my camera with me to places so I can take more photos. I do not see how anyone could be dissapointed with this camera. I was at the Indy 500 race this year and took some incredible pictures with this camera.

So happy we selected the Minolta Maxxum HTsi camera,the instructions make it very easy to use and it is much lighter in weight than we expected. Came on time for our first granddaughter Makenna.


3 out of 5 stars Exposure Problems   July 9, 2002
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

I have a mixed review of this camera since i bought it about 8 months ago. Over all the technology for the price you get in this camera is great, with the exception of the Auto Focus (AF). When used in manual, you can get great pictures with this camera, but then you can get good pictures with any camera that works in manual, if you know what your doing. So the real issue is how good the AF works, which is how you end up taking 80% of your shots anyways. The AF on the Minolta HTsi Plus has some problems. One, it is a little slow to focus. I tried the Canon Rebel in the camera shop after I bought this camera and found the AF to be much faster. Two, this camera seems to have some serious exposure problems in AF. It never quite gets the exposure right. For example outside shots look bleached out more often then not, even when you try to light meter off the brightest spot first. Also, the contrast in color seems to always come out weak with this camera. I am not sure how much of this is the camera's fault or lens's fault as film also plays a role here, but pictures defiantly come out color poor. I have used a number of different films with this and they all come out color poor.

Over all the technology in this Camera is good -AF so if you always use manual, this camera is good for that. But if you think you are going to do some percentage of point and shot with this camera, I would look elsewhere. If i had to do it over, I would have spent a little more and got the Canon Rebel.


4 out of 5 stars Misses the panorama mode   February 4, 2002

The HTsi misses the panaroma capability, which is a differentiator with the XTsi. So, in case you are looking for the panorama mode, choose the XTSi. The other features are quite good. The camera handles well.
