Happy SUNday! – Minolta Madness

A couple of Minolta 35mm film cameras for your Sunday morning viewing pleasure.

Purchased in the summer of 1975 and still going strong.
Purchased in the autumn of 2000. It’s hard to believe it’s been 23 years!

Do you have an all-time favorite Minolta camera? Do you still have it? By the way, I’ve put both of these classics in my camera shop at http://www.ccstudio2380.com. Thanks for stopping by, Chris

* The lens can be adapted for use on digital cameras.
* This is a high-quality lens that is well-built.

*The condition is overall near mint with just a few very
minor paint wear areas on the lens barrel.

*The lens is super clean – no dirt anywhere and only
some minor specs of dust. No mold, no fungus
that I can see with a bright LED light.

*The lens functions perfectly. The aperture blades are clean
and snappy, the lens mounts securely, and the focus is smooth
and spot on.

*The set includes the original Minolta lens caps, a Minolta
lens hood, and a Toshiba 55mm screw-in Skylight (1A)
metal and glass filter with Toshiba plastic case.

It’s a one-owner lens that has never been
offered for sale before.
I believe the lens was built in 1985 in Japan.

Includes the lens, a Minolta lens hood, Minolta front and rear lens caps, and a Toshiba 55mm screw-in Skylight 1A filter.

This wonderful lens set is available in my online camera shop http://www.ccstudio2380.com which is hosted by Etsy. It mails nearly Worldwide so if you’re interested pop on over and check it out. Additional pics are listed with the lens.
