I finally succumbed to the temptation to take the top off an SRT102 that had a sticking meter needle. After struggling with the usual difficult nuts/screws, ...
Minolta made a lot of different models of SRT's, some more valuable than others. Because you live near NY, the value of your SRT100 will be low. If it's a...

Hi Jakub, For me none... I have 1,4 and 1,7 in MC (on my XM) and in MD mount (on my X-700). Yes, with 1,4 you 'win' 1/2 stop but if you shoot with 1,4 or 1,7...

Congradulations on your recent accuire. The SRT 100 is a good solid user camera, just the thing to start your photoraphy foray. As to relative value, I,m going...

Are the triple connectors (TC1000) and the OC cables the same for the manual (X-700) camera and AF cameras? I notice from the photos of the triple connector,...
Before removing the top cover, one thing that is very helpful is to set the shutter speed to B and the ASA to it's highest setting. This takes the tension off ...
