Konica's entry-level 2002 digicam — 1.3MP CMOS, fixed focus, SD card, AA power.
The Digital Revio KD-100 was an entry-level digital compact announced by Konica in July 2002, shortly before the company's merger with Minolta. It sat at the bottom of the Digital Revio line as a simple, low-cost snapshot camera aimed at first-time digital buyers, and eBay sellers usually list it under the short name Konica KD-100.
It used a 1.3-megapixel CMOS sensor — an unusual choice in an era when most compacts used CCDs — behind a fixed-focus lens with 2x digital zoom. A 1.5in LCD handled framing and playback, images went to 8MB of internal memory or an SD card, and connectivity covered USB plus video-out to a television. Power came from two AA batteries, and it offered three flash modes with red-eye reduction, exposure compensation and a 10-second self-timer.
This is a point-and-shoot in the purest sense: no optical zoom, no focus control and modest resolution, so it suits collectors of early-2000s digicams and anyone after the soft, lo-fi rendering of a first-generation CMOS compact rather than image quality by modern standards.
On the used market the KD-100 is cheap and often sold untested. AA power means no charger worries and SD cards remain easy to find, though very early cameras prefer low-capacity cards. Check the LCD for damage, confirm the flash charges, and inspect the battery compartment for alkaline corrosion.
