Konica Minolta Dimage X60 vs Fuji Finepic z1

Jun 15, 2005 5:20PM PDT

I could not find movies resolution for the x60 and the record length can be done on the OME memory card. Anyone got a x60? Which one would you pick?

thanks

There is not enough information available to choose one over the other.

I did find a review of the Z1:

http://www.dcresource.com/reviews/fuji/finepix_z1-review/index.shtml

It says the video mode is 640 or 320 at 30fps.
It says 14.8 minutes of video at 640x480 for a 1 gig memory card. About twice that amount of minutes for 320x240 at 30fps.
Which is about par for the course.

A digital camcorder is still the best way to make videos.

A press release for the Konica Minolta X60 says that it can do 320x240 at 15 or 30 fps:
