Konica Minolta are the last of the major camera brands to enter the digital SLR market with their first interchangeable lens model. This was a surprising delay considering the same company introduced the first 35mm film SLR with body integrated AF system SLR back in 1985. Maybe they got their fingers burnt when they were also the first company to produce an APS SLR, when that format appeared in the late 90s and flopped a few year later.
