Minolta Freedom Action Zoom 90 35mm Camera

Product Description

Freedom Action Zoom 90's remarkably compact design and light weight make it one of the smallest and lightest zoom cameras in its class - a perfect companion for vacations, day trips, family outings, picnics, parties, or just about anywhere the action is. The camera slips easily into a coat pocket, purse or fanny pack, and features a 2.4x zoom lens which captures everything from scenery to smiles.Freedom Action Zoom 90 provides point and shoot ease, exciting features, and high-quality results. The 38-90mm power zoom lens is ideal for a wide range of photographic subjects including landscapes, groups, snapshots, candids, and portraits. A convenient zoom lever makes it easy to adjust zoom position while composing the image in the viewfinder. Even a beginner can easily use the Freedom Action Zoom 90. All functions are automatic, allowing the user complete freedom to concentrate on the subject or scene. The precise 200-step infrared autofocus system keeps the main subject sharp under a wide variety of shooting conditions. Focus Hold function locks the focus so that the main subject can be creatively positioned anywhere in the frame. Freedom Action Zoom 90's versatile flash modes let you shoot in a variety of lighting situations with ease and confidence. To reduce the red-eye effect caused by the flash reflecting off the inside of the subject's eyes, the red-eye reduction lamp glows to close down the subject's pupils before the flash is fired. The convenient self-timer delays shutter release for approximately 10 seconds after the shutter-release button has been pressed, allowing you to set up the shot and appear in the photo.

Amazon.com Review

The Minolta Freedom Action Zoom 90 delivers high-quality zoom performance in a compact, affordable package. Its high-powered zoom, and range of flash options, make it a good choice for travelers and photographers who need moderately advanced features. While the Minolta Freedom Action Zoom 90 isn't super-compact, it is relatively small and lightweight. The Minolta has a fairly powerful 38 to 90mm zoom lens, good for wide-angle landscape shots, portraits, and close-ups.

The Minolta Freedom Action Zoom 90 takes ISO 100, 200, and 400 film; and automatically reads the speed of DX-coded film. Non DX-coded film automatically sets to ISO 100. The Zoom 90 allows you to lock focus to compensate for situations where autofocus isn't the best choice (e.g. when your subject is off center). There are five flash modes--auto, fill-flash, off, night portrait, and landscape modes. Night portrait mode synchronizes a slow shutter speed with the flash, allowing well-lit portraits against a nightscape. Landscape mode turns the flash off and sets the focus at infinity, letting you take sharp pictures of distant mountains and landmarks. The Minolta Freedom Action Zoom 90 has both automatic and manual film rewind options.

Overall, we found the Minolta Freedom Action Zoom 90 to be a good general-purpose point-and-shoot camera, with some extra features such as the landscape and night portrait modes. The zoom is relatively high-powered for a camera in its class. The only drawback we experienced was that it zooms out in four steps, versus of a continuous, fluid motion. The 90's small size and automatic lens cover make it a good traveling companion.

Pros:

Relatively powerful zoom lens
Wide range of flash options
Compact size
Automatic rewind

Cons:

Stepped zoom (not continuos)

Cheaply Made!.......2001-04-13

Within a short time after purchase, the (plastic) back latch on the Minolta Freedom Action Zoom 90-Date camera broke. Now the camera is worthless. The warranty covers only manufacturing defects (not poor design). I found the camera cheaply made and the quality of the pictures just average. My advice would be to spend a little more and get a better made camera that hasn't been so poorly designed.

Minolta.......2000-10-12

I received this camera as a gift last November (1999). After 3 weeks of use, it started to rewind after only taking 2 or 3 pictures. I returned it to the store where it was purchased and exchanged it for the same model assuming it was an individual camera problem. I was wrong. The red eye reduction feature has never worked. When using the zoom feature, pictures are extremely fuzzy. The only way to get good pictures is to not use the zoom and take picture outdoors. Now the camera has completely quit working. Everything that can blink at me does. I tried replacing the battery and that was not successful. I do not recommend this particular camera to anyone.

Mintolta.......1999-12-31

I have mixed feelings about this camera. I have been using it for the past year and have found that while my outdoor picutres come out nicely, indoor shots leave something to be desired. I have tried shots with 200 to 800 speed film and 400 seems to give me the best pictures. I've also noticed that the pictures used with the zoom lense often come out fuzzy, so many of my early pictures weren't too clear. Also, when the camera uses the flash, it takes a while before its ready again. I expected more from the camera, but am happy with its basic outdoor shots.

Wonderful.......1999-12-23

We purchased this camera to replace a Fuji that I had had for years. The camera seemed comfortable, easy to use, had a longer-range zoom than most in the price range and had the features we wanted. We are very happy with the camera overall, however, my only complaint is that it is a little noisy for the zoom and the camera casing feels a little "cheap", not as sturdy as the fuji. Overall, the pictures are wonderful and we are very happy with our decision - much happier than we were with the Fuji.

Minolta's Freedom Action Zoom 90 date camera is a perfect companion for vacations, day trips, family outings, or anywhere the action is. It is compact and lightweight, so it's easy to carry in your pocket, purse, or backpack. The versatile 2.4x zoom lens allows for a wide range of photographic subjects, including landscapes, groups, snapshots, candids, and portraits. A zoom lever makes it easy to adjust the zoom position while composing in the viewfinder.

A 200-step infrared autofocus system keeps the main subject sharp under a wide variety of shooting conditions. To compose a clear, focused shot, just frame your picture, press the shutter-release button partway down to lock the focus, and take the picture. The focus-hold option allows you to stay focused on a subject while recomposing your picture.

The Freedom Action Zoom 90 shoots in a variety of lighting situations with several flash modes. In auto mode, you can concentrate on your subject while the camera fires the flash when needed. If the main subject is backlit, fill flash may be selected to enhance lighting. A flash-cancel button is provided for museum shots when a flash is not permitted.

Night portrait mode synchronizes the flash with a slow shutter so you'll have enough light to capture shots in the evening with ambient light. You can also set the autofocus system to infinity to ensure sharp photos of distant subjects in a landscape. The built-in quartz data back imprints the date or time on each photo and can be switched off when desired.

Very good camera. Unlike Olimpus, takes pictures fast, opens, closes quickly. Quality of pictures high and consistent. lacks modern metallic design, but it's reflected in the price.

Can't beat it for the money.......2007-09-06

Great radio-works good, do not like that I always have to switch it back to 19 when I turn it on. Otherwise--great

Simple and to the Point.......2007-07-17

This CB is exactly what I needed (mostly for the PA function). Words to the wise: pick up an antenna even if you do not intend on using the function-you'll regret it if you do not at first (due to this unit requiring an antenna attached before attempting to broadcast). I had purchased an 'economy' antenna and due to it not connecting properly probably destroyed any/all ability for me to communicate through the CB radio function.
Simple to wire and mount.

Good start.......2007-06-14

I got this CB a month ago for my LandCruiser and it's been working great. I have short antenna so I'm not getting the best reception, but gets the job done. I haven't been on the highway since I got it but I can't wait for a long trip somewhere!
The only concern I have for it is that the channel changing knob sometimes skips over channels. Its showing signs that's its going to break soon, I think.
What I don't like about it is that it starts on Channel 9, no one talks on the Police Channel! I wish it had a little battery in there to remember where you were last time you turned it off, like Channel 1-9!
Otherwise, I've been having a good time showing it off to my friends and looking hip with it. Get it, bring it back! (These cell phones cost too much these days anyway)

works for me.......2007-05-14

I got this cb 'cause I'm lazy and don't want to leave my rig to find a receiver everytime I pull my 53 footer into a warehouse facility. It works fine for getting your weight on a scale and short range BS'n and that's all I was looking for. If you're looking for bells and whistles and talkin' smack with your good ol' boys this probably ain't it.

Very Satisfied.......2007-05-12

This is a powerful little radio. Using a 2" fiberglass antenna I can receive great, as well as put out a good distance. Others have written that the radio defaults to channel 9 when you turn it on, but mine always turns on to the last channel I left it at. Also, the PA is great. One feature about the PA that I noticed is that the volume knob adjusts the PA output so you don't always have to talk at full volume. Another complaint that people had was the channel selecting knob. It does tend to miss that you turned but if you're not turning the knob fast it can keep up with you. I think its just the fact that the design of continuous rotation means it doesn't really matter how many times you turn to change the channels because there is no set position for each channel on the knob.
