An icon of the 1980s, it works as well as it looks good.
The greatest thing about this camera, is its aperture priority mode – AKA magic mode – set your aperture (be resaonable) and then just shoot, the camera knows what it’s doing.
This is a great travel camera, that is sure to get you some nostalgic glances and benevolent interactions with all the many people who used to own a minolta in their youth – trust me, people will come and talk to you.
It comes with:
- 50mm f1:2 OEM lens
- 28mm f1:2.8 magicon lens
- 70-210mm f1:3.9 zoom magicon lens
- the camera case
- lens pouches to hold the two magicon lenses
- documentation about the camera (in French) and minolta’s system
- the camera front cap
I used this camera so much, and now I barely ever reach for it, it’s not right, she’s a jewel. Please buy her, use her, love her, she deserves better than collecting dust.
At some point it had developed a slight light leak, but from memory I’d fixed it.
