Minolta X-700 (II)

A 17xxxx- series X-700 in excellent condition with standard 50mm. The X-700 was built between 1981 and 1999 and plenty of these are available these days. Beware of capacitor- issues around series 24xxxx - 26xxxx (and up?). Because of the MPS (Minolta Program System), two capacitors are used and the one on top can be the one that has to be replaced. Not a simple job, unless you are skilled.

2.1 million X-700's were sold in 18 years of production. Between 1981-1984 over 700.000 pieces alone were eagerly bought. The X-700 became Camera of the Year in 1981.
