performance is Minolta
technology. The Freedom Zoom 115 has been downsized to the absolute
minimum through the use of a new compact zoom lens system with two
double-sided aspheric elements, significantly reducing the thickness of
lens elements. The viewfinder optical system is thin, due to a compact
roof prism inversion system for optimum clarity. Also contributing to the
camera's compactness are efficient unit design and placement of
components, as well as a thin protective stainless steel shell. The
Freedom Zoom 115's high-quality Minolta zoom lens features two
double-sided aspheric elements. Each lens is created using a multi-step
manufacturing process where aspheric elements and a zoom component are
aligned with micron order precision. At any focal length, the Freedom Zoom
115 assures clear and sharp images with superb contrast. ________________________________________________________________

Great camera all around and dummy-proof as well., February 18, 2004
Reviewer: A customer
I went into Target with a $100 limit to buy a new camera, and this one was
$99.99. I do not want a digital yet since they need to be expensive to be
good, but I have started freelancing for a local magazine and needed
something better than a plain old autofocus, non-zoom, autoflash cheapie,
which is what I was using with pretty decent results, but that one started
malfunctioning. I know most people don't read the instruction booklets
that come with cameras, but this one really can do a lot, so it is going
to be a waste of your time and money if you don't check out everything
that it can do. I recommend using a whole roll of film just trying out the
different modes and experimenting. It does everything that a manual 35MM
camera can do, but if you're like me and are likely to mess up on your
manual settings and ruin a picture, this camera is going to be your best
bet. And you can't beat the price. Most cameras at this price only zoom up
to around 80MM.

Reviewer: "bledden"
They say it was delivered. I have never seen it and very disappointed. I
think it should of been stated on delivery. I will never shop here again
and will delete my account if I receive the last item I am waiting on. Not
sellers fault but very poor decision in shipping. I think I should have
been told. I work hard for my money and now I have lost $100.

Reviewer: S. Mehta
its a great buy for people looking for something better than regular auto
focus cameras and cheaper than SLRs...its features are simple and easy to
use/understand...the zoom is really good and so is the flash range...

Good Buy!, December 8, 2002
Reviewer: A customer
Did some research on Amazon, but I did not buy this here as Amazon does
not ship internationally for electronics goods.
Anyway, have bought this camera for only a week and I am really impressed
with the first roll of films I have taken. As it is now the Xmas season, I
took a lot of outdoor pictures at night with all the Xmas lightings in the
background. The pictures came out crystal clear, no red eye and very
sharp. There are a couple of modes to choose from depending on where you
are and it's pretty easy to use. I thought I will return this for an
Olympus but I think I will stick with this. It's coming with me for my
trip to Hong Kong on Xmas!

I have point & shot 35mm camera for many years. About one year ago, I sent
it to my young sister before I came here. I really liked the advantages of
Minolta...
