    Maxxum 5D, front

    Konica Minolta's last SLR camera release, in July 2005, was the Maxxum 5D. It features Konica's anti-shake technology, which helps prevent blurred pictures, especially when images are captured in low light. The camera contains a 6.1-megapixel CCD.

    Sony, which plans to buy a portion of Konica Minolta's single-lens reflex camera business, said on Friday it will aim for a quarter of the SLR market.

    The Cyber-shot DSC-R1 from Sony Electronics yokes traditional SLR and up-to-date digital technologies. The view screen always shows what the lens sees, even when a picture is being snapped, and an oversize sensor enables the R1 to take 10.3-megapixel photos.
