Konica Minolta Dynax/Maxxum 5D: Long Term Review

Amazon DSLR - https://amzn.to/3OvkuQz KM - https://amzn.to/3OxHbUy In this video I take a close up long term look at the second and last DSLR from Konica Minolta, based on the A Mount system (later Sony Alpha). Also known as the Alpha/Maxxum 5D, it offered a more affordable body and smaller size compared to the semi pro level 7D, but the same sensor and some improvements. Using the well known 6mp CCD sensor, the camera has a distinctive output, and it also quite respectable in low light too. It was also the second DSLR in production to feature "Anti Shake" the in body stabilisation system. I show the camera in detail, discuss some of the features and potential issues you might face if you buy one of these used.
