Only have seen one Minolta XK and that was back when they were new. Minolta made some impressive cameras back then...the XK and the small Leica CL rangefinder twin, of which I wanted.

Indeed. Like this.........?



Here is some more gratuitous Minolta porn.......

Yes it is ! Lovely camera. Thx for the pix of the additional Minoltas. Still a surprise to me that that fine name is not with us anymore.

My f1.5 or faster group, I


Helios 40(1.5/85) Mitakon 1.2/85, Samyang 1.2/85, Zenitar 0.95/50, Kamlan 1.1/50 II, Minolta 1.4/58, Zenitar 1.4/85, Ttartisan 0.95/50, Ttartisan 1.25/75, Mitakon 0.95/50 II, Rokinon 1.2/35, Voigtlander Nokton 1.4/58, 7Artisan 1.1/50, 7Artisan 0.95/35, Soviet 1.2/35, Jupiter 1.5/50

Slightly updated.

You guys have quite the impressive collection. My photo won't mean anything to you guys, but this camera means something to me. It use to belong to my dad, and he passed it onto me.
