Minolta 7000 AF SLR & 35-70mm f/4.0 Lens
All cameras are film tested, and any issues found are described below. Any photos you see in the listing are taken with this particular camera.
Lens: Minolta 35-70mm f/4.0 AF Lens
Film speed settings: 25-6400 ISO, DX & manual.
Film Format: 35mm
Lens Mount: Minolta AF
Shutter: B/30 to 1/2000 sec
Focusing: TTL Autofocus
Light Meter: Battery Powered
Battery: AAA x 4
Flash: Hot Shoe
Year: 1985 - Onwards
Country: Japan
The good:
· For a 40-year-old camera, it is in remarkably good condition.
· Shutter fires well, and tested exposures reveal no timing issues.
· Focus ring is smooth and accurate.
· Film transport arm is smooth and solid.
· Aperture blades move freely.
· Flash hot shoe works as expected.
· Light meter reacts to light well and tends to expose well for the shadows.
· Rather unusually for these cameras, the grip has not broken. That being said, it’s a known issue with these, so careful handling is advised.
The less good:
· As is the norm with the LCD screens on these cameras, the edges have failed. The screen is still easily useable though.
· General wear and tear.
