Is the Konica DG-2 worth buying used?
It can be worth buying if you want a 1.95 MP effective / 2.1 MP total Konica Minolta digital camera from 2002 with 1/2-inch CCD, 2.1 MP total / 1.95 MP effective.

How do you transfer photos from the Konica DG-2?

Konica DG-2 is worth judging as its own Konica Minolta rugged compact body, not just as a generic old compact. Start with condition, the exact battery/card setup, and whether its look fits what you want to shoot.
What owners like
Konica DG-2 works best when you want beach days, rain, travel, and rougher bags where a normal compact feels too delicate rather than a technically perfect modern camera; its rugged compact CCD sensor and rugged fixed-lens site camera are the main character of the look.
Common complaints
Check the lens movement, flash, screen, buttons, and card door calmly before relying on it; older compact bodies can need a little patience without being a bad buy.
