Chronology of cameras Konica
Before it disappeared and became Konica Minolta in 2004, the Konica brand participated in the rise of digital photography with a series of consumer compact cameras whose names begin with Digital Revio KD, with KD presumably standing for Konica Digital. These are simple cameras. The range evolved with technological advancements. The main change from one model to the next is the sensor resolution. Models ending with a Z have a zoom feature. Strangely, the KD-3000 and KD-4000 models do not follow this rule.

1The emergence of several models using the Memory Stick memory card, developed by Sony, foreshadows the consolidation of brands. Konica and Minolta merged starting in 2003, and the devices bear the Konica Minolta brand. In 2005, a collaboration begins with Sony. In 2006, Konica Minolta ceased its photographic activities, and Sony took over the photography department to launch its new DSLR cameras.__________
For the originality of the design, we'll have to pass. The Revio KD-220Z is a large parallelepiped from which protrudes a piece of broomstick!
In addition to its internal memory of a few megabytes, the KD-220Z has the ability to receive an SD memory card. This is the originality of this model, and moreover, it is even indicated on the front face, so innovative it is.
The technical specifications section of the manual skips over a number of pieces of information, including sensitivity, screen size, etc.
