For example, you can lock the focus or the exposure, compensate for a lighter or darker exposure, and select your own White Balance option. But despite its sophistication, the KD-500Z is very easy to use. Just three buttons control the main functions: Play, Display and Delete. The TFT color LCD monitor has a backlight to ensure bright images. And a simple, four-way button lets you cycle through the various flash and shooting modes without going through the menu system. Sleek, flat styling in a slim, handsome, stainless steel case ensures a high quality look and feel. Naturally, you get all the regular features: Auto Flash, Flash ON or OFF, Night Portrait, Red-eye Reduction, Self-Timer. And some not so regular, such as being able to add up to 30 seconds of voice to comment on your still shots, or as a voice memo. But for real attention to detail, how about this: for digital camera users who miss the reassuring sounds of film cameras, Konica have even added the shutter click sound from the award-winning Hexar RF! |
