Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
Lori Grunin Senior Editor / Advice
I've been reviewing hardware and software, devising testing methodology and handed out buying advice for what seems like forever; I'm currently absorbed by computers and gaming hardware, but previously spent many years concentrating on cameras. I've also volunteered with a cat rescue for over 15 years doing adoptions, designing marketing materials, managing volunteers and, of course, photographing cats.

Although I've been expecting a shakeout in the digital camera industry, I didn't expect Konica Minolta to be one of the casualties. But early this morning, the company announced that it's getting out of the camera--both film and digital--and photofinishing businesses. All of its dSLR technologies have been transferred to Sony to ensure continuation of support for its lens mounts.
Given that we actually liked KM's cameras, we consider this a pretty sad day, not to mention the end of an era. You can read more about it at "Konica Minolta announces withdrawal plan for camera business and photo business."
Rest in peace, KM.
