Looking for a Digicam/corder

I am in the market, I want a Konika-Minolta Dimage6 for a digicam but I also need video capability, I want something light and palm sizeish or close to it. I need the quality to be good as well and a wicked zoom will be very benificial in helping me decide.

Thanks in Advance.

Nah, I'm looking to get one myself. It's discontinued, but you can find 'em on online retailers.

Just letting you know, the Elura is a camcorder first, then a camera second. It's not that great of a camera, but it does take stills.

Hey, fyi, I asked my bro who works for Konicka-Minolta out of HQ in New York... he said the camera division got sold to Sony about a year ago, so they cannot do any deals on cameras, etc. Sorry, but you had asked me a while back and I forgot to get back to you on that.

Good luck on your search.
