Mine does have a shutter speed manual setting that is pretty awesome, and a setting for action shots which also uses fast shutter speed. The only thing I hate about the camera is how poorly it works in dim light.spazfillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06165692758574924371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5622814511898132197.post-42816923013053720942009-06-02T10:17:28.374-07:002009-06-02T10:17:28.374-07:00I'm really looking for a camera that both zooms we...I'm really looking for a camera that both zooms well and has a fast shutter speed (or whatever it is on digitals)...mine is a sloth when it comes to that D:Arallynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08572214675016974309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5622814511898132197.post-44493744041080486232009-06-01T09:43:41.733-07:002009-06-01T09:43:41.733-07:00It's a Konica-Minolta Z6 with 12x optical zoom.

However, it sucks in dim lighting and the autofocus is sometimes less than ideal. I actually REALLY want a new camera that will fit in my pocket for trail rides! This one is too bulky.spazfillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06165692758574924371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5622814511898132197.post-87083007125233941612009-06-01T09:41:02.199-07:002009-06-01T09:41:02.199-07:00Sort of unrelated, but what make of camera do you ...Sort of unrelated, but what make of camera do you use?
