Minolta's manual-focus X-Series SLRs have long been favorites of photography students, amateurs, and professionals alike. The fully programmed, multi-mode X-700 selects both aperture and shutter speed, so all you have to do is focus and shoot. With the aperture-priority X-370s, you set an aperture and the camera sets the shutter speed for proper exposure. Both cameras have full-metered manual exposure control for the photographer who wants to do it all. Along with the comprehensive X-Series system of lenses and accessories, Minolta X-Series gives you system sophistication with simple, dependable operation. Plus, the X-700 is backed by Minolta's full selection of X-Series lenses and accessories, so it's a camera you can grow with, year after year Less

The Maxxum 7 Digital will have a six megapixel APS sized CCD, will have body integrated anti-shake (just like the DiMAGE A1/A2) which will work with all lenses and will be fully system compatible. This camera should be available in 'Fall 2004'. We, along with a few others had an opportunity to take a few pictures of an early pre-production camera. Less

A Consistent & Reliable Friend For 18 Years~ Egads! Am I That Much Older Too~!~

byJDinPA Mar 27, 2001
94 Helpfuls 95 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros SLR, Manual-Bulb-Automatic features, Quality Minolta brand, has stood the test of time
Cons On the heavy side, does not have the bells/ whistles that some people need
Recommended it? Yes

I bought my Minolta X-700 so long ago I do not even remember how much I paid for it~ I do remember where I bought it from, and I remember the excitement of owning my very own SLR camera. If I had to buy another camera right now, I would stick with the Minolta X-700 ~ it has more than proven itself... Read full review »

Still a Fine Choice, Great for Beginners and Intermediates or Those With Limited Budgets

bycolonialpara Nov 22, 2002

Pros Still An Outstanding Manual SLR
Cons Age of Design and Technology
Recommended it? Yes

The Minolta X-700 was the second SLR I ever owned; the first being an X-370 purchased as part of a kit in 1986. That camera went everywhere with me and after thousands of photos, the film advance crank went in 1998 when I was taking shots of Iraqi Kurds who had fled to Turkey. Since I already had...

Adventures with the Maxxum 7D

byPirich Jan 22, 2007
27 Helpfuls 28 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Inexpensive for value, lots of lenses/accessories, powerful features, Flat-out WORKS
Cons No successor yet produced, becoming somewhat rare.
Recommended it? Yes

My first SLR was the first Minolta auto focus SLR, the Maxxum 7000. My second SLR, as it turns out, is the first of Minolta's Digital SLRs, and sadly, appeared at the end of this brand in the marketplace. Now that I had had the Maxxum 7D for a while, I have had a chance to shoot with it in a wide... Read full review »

Size, Shape & Weight
This camera is almost perfectly sized for average male hands, the only exception being the hand-grip, which could be a bit deeper. The overall shape resembles that of its 35mm bro, the award-winning Minolta Dynax 7, although adjustments have been made to bring it more in... Read full review »
