Hi! Acquired an XE-7 and it looks like the previous owner twisted off the round black cap that holds the film advance lever onto the hub. I managed to drill...
You may have to look for a "parts" XE-7 and transplant the advance lever. You might try contacting some of the repair services listed in Shutterbug Magazine...

I have an older style 58/1.2 that I'd like to sell. It's been sitting in a drawer for a long time and I'd have to check it out but the last time I looked it...
I always thought that f-stop and focal length determined Depth of Field and format size had little or nothing to do with it. Obviously the world of digital has...

Go to this site and scroll down to SRT 201. It's a pdf download. All you need. http://www.lensinc.net/freeuser.html ... From: ManualMinolta@yahoogroups.com...
