The Konica DiMAGE G530 offers 5.0 megapixel resolution, 3x optical zoom and many other features for high-quality digital photography. This camera is so slim and so light that you can slip it into your pocket to carry around with you at all times. The high-quality stainless steel and aluminium body give the camera a very stylish finish.

5.0 megapixel CCD

The DiMAGE G530's 5.0 megapixel CCD sensor produces detail-rich images which will look stunning as large-size prints. You can enlarge your photos up to A3 size at 150 dpi printer resolution.
Hybrid Adaptive A*IPS is an exclusive image processing technology that works to reproduce remarkably faithful colours on each shot. The moment you press the shutter button, A*IPS gathers various data directly from the CCD sensor and uses an advanced algorithm to optimize exposure, focusing, and white balance.

GT HEXANON Lens with 3x optical zoom

The DiMAGE G530 has a wide shooting range thanks to the 3x optical zoom of its GT HEXANON Lens, which offers strikingly clear images at all focal lengths. This lens has a special coating that suppresses flare and image distortion. Optical zoom range is the equivalent of 34 to 102 mm on a 35mm film camera. And if you need to extend your reach a bit further, you can use digital zoom to boost your total zoom range to 6x or 9x.

Rapid Start-up

Start-up time is amazingly short, approx. 0.8 seconds after you slide open the lens cover. To focus, you simply press the shutter button halfway and the camera's rapid autofocusing is done in approx. 0.25 seconds only. Then press the shutter button all the way and you've captured your image, without even noticing the 0.03 second shutter release time lag.

Other features include:

* Digital subject program selection - programs include sports, angel, night, portrait, snapshot, scenery
* Selectable exposure modes
* Fixed focus
* Four colour modes
* Image adjustment
* Pictbridge compatibilty
