I am happy to combine postage for multiple purchases
There is an express option upon checkout.
According to Minolta it was "the most innovative SLR" in that era.
And in a way it is, as soon as the photographer puts his eye to the
camera it begins to focus and to zoom to create the best possible
picture.
It reacts to the program-card used, Minolta offered a wide range of
pre-programmed chip-cards for various types of shooting, i.e. landscape,
portrait or sports. If no card is inserted it functions as a normal
P-setting, giving a programmed shutter/aperture combination.
Of course one can switch off all these electronic gadgets and use
the camera as a semi-professional manual body in A, S or M-mode. The
body takes all lenses with the Minolta/Sony A-mount. It's specifications
are quite impressive, even for modern digital standards:
