Amazon.com Product Description
This version of Minolta's simple-to-use Maxxum QTsi comes with two lenses, a 35-80mm zoom, and a 70-210mm zoom, giving you a wide variety of zoom ranges to chose from. This, plus the precise, continuous AF tracking of subjects in motion, gives you the ability to capture close-ups or action shots. The zoom lenses let you take intimate portraits of your friends and family members or close-ups of natural landscapes. The QTsi also comes with several preprogrammed subject modes--portrait, landscape, close-up, sports, and night portrait--that take the mistakes and guesswork out of your shots.
A large on-body LCD panel displays exposure mode, cartridge mark, film-transport signals, battery condition, self-timer operation, flash mode, red-eye reduction, wireless/remote flash, manual focus, frame counter, drive mode, and subject program indicators. The QTsi has a focus range of 15 inches to infinity when it's used with the 35-80mm lens. The focus and exposure lock are activated by pushing the shutter release button partway down. When the lock signal appears in the viewfinder, simply recompose your shot and push the shutter release button all the way down to take the picture. This feature will not work if your subject is in motion, though.
