Life is made of moments. Most too good to miss. That's why Minolta developed the new Maxxum HTsi. A camera sophisticated enough to catch a fleeting image, yet simple enough to use in an instant.
Super compact and lightweight, the Maxxum HTsi is deceptively potent. No other camera in its class comes close to its power and performance features.

From its 1/4000 sec. shutter speed to its highly-advanced 14-segment Honeycomb Metering system, everything you need in an AF SLR camera is at your fingertips.

You'll never believe how easy and rewarding it is to capture extraordinary moments in your life. Until you get your hands on the new Maxxum HTsi.

3-Point Crosscut Autofocus

The new 3-point crosscut autofocus system instantly identifies and tracks your subject. Separate 3-point sensors keep even off-center subjects sharp. And the combination horizontal and vertical pattern enables you to focus even on the horizon.

Action

So fast, so accurate, the Maxxum HTsi is point-and-shoot easy to use. While you compose your, shot the autofocus system captures and tracks even a moving subject. You can simply wait for the right moment, or you can fire non-stop at up to 2 frames per second.

Predictive Focus Control

Predictive focus control means the Maxxum HTsi calculates exactly where a moving subject will be, even at the moment of shutter release, so that the focus is always razor sharp.

1/4000 Second

The Maxxum HTsi is the only camera in its class to offer such a high shutter speed—allowing you to freeze images at the height of action. The high speed shutter allows a high flash-synchronization speed of 1/125 sec., enabling crisper detail when using flash with moving subjects in low-light or backlit situations.

Stop motion with an astonishing 1/4000 sec. shutter speed. Capture and see the world in dramatic and compelling ways you never thought possible. Two frames per second of continuous frame advance means you can capture the action by just keeping your finger on the shutter release—there's no need to reset and risk having to re-compose the scene.

Metering

The Maxxum HTsi is the first AF SLR in its class to offer sophisticated AF-integrated Honeycomb-Pattern Metering technology. Light is measured from 13 uniform segments, plus the background. The uniform size and shape of the individual segments allow the metering pattern to match your subject precisely. If your subject moves, or the lighting shifts, the metering pattern adjusts accordingly.

Spot metering allows you to pinpoint a specific area of the frame with which to base your exposure. Now, a face in a shadow or a portrait before a window can be captured beautifully and effortlessly.
