Used Minolta X-700 Body Only - Excellent

Minolta's X-700 is a perfect combination of sophistication and simplicity. In P mode, the camera selects both the shutter and aperture for the correct exposure, so all you have to do is focus and shoot. But if you want to take over, there's aperture-priority exposure control and full metered manual exposure control right at your fingertips. 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.
