Konica Minolta Maxxum 50 Date 28-100 35mm SLR Camera Description and Reviews.

Product Description:
From the Manufacturer
High-contrast silver and black give the Konica Minolta Maxxum 50 a sleek look that highlights the SLR camera’s reliability and dependability. Featuring a Wide 3-Point autofocusing (AF) System for increased focusing confidence, Predictive Focus Control for moving subjects, Full-Auto Program for no-fuss shooting, and Subject Program Selection for the best photos in any situation or lighting, this film camera is ideal for photographer of all skill levels.

Multi-dimensional Predictive Focus Control
Like the name suggests, this function keeps a clear focus on fast-moving subjects until the photographer is ready to shoot, predicting exactly where a moving subject is going to be at the moment of shutter-release and making certain that the focus is razor sharp.

Full-Auto Program (P) Mode
Users simply select the green-colored P Mode on the selection dial, and the camera handles everything. The Maxxum 50 focuses perfectly on the subject and adjusts exposure automatically. The built-in flash unit pops up automatically when needed.

Versatile Exposure Modes
The Maxxum 50 offers four exposure modes: P (programmed AE), A (aperture priority), S (shutter priority) and M (manual) exposure modes that ensure photographs convey the user’s intentions perfectly every time the shutter is pressed.

Subject Program Selection for All Photo Situations
Users choose the appropriate icon and the desired exposure setting, and the Maxxum 50 does all the work. The following 5 pre-programmed modes allow users to shoot a particular scene beautifully with the touch of a dial.

  • Portrait Mode creates portraits with emotional power. By blurring the background while keeping the subject in sharp focus, this mode creates dramatic portrait shots.
  • Landscape Mode controls the depth of field, putting both a subject in the foreground and scenery in the background in clear focus and sharp detail.
  • Close-Up Mode lets photographers take dramatic close-ups of small subjects, such as flowers. This mode captures subject details while keeping distracting backgrounds out of focus.
  • Sports Action Mode is the best choice for shooting a moving object. Super-fast continuous AF and high shutter speeds freeze a subject and capture clear, sharp detail.
  • Night Portrait Mode adds greater expression to shots taken at night or with sunset backgrounds by using the flash and a longer exposure to reduce background darkness and capture a greater amount of detail.
ADI flash metering
When using a D series lens, ADI (Advanced Distance Integration) metering*1 ensures proper flash exposures regardless of background or subject reflectance. *1 When using a dedicated flash unit: 5600HS(D), 3600HS(D) or 2500(D)

Spherical Acute Matte
Like its more expensive counterparts, the Maxxum 50 features a Spherical Acute Matte focusing screen that enhances the brightness of the viewfinder and makes focusing easier. Viewer magnification has been rated to 0.75x.
