Thanks for the several reply's concerning the Minolta Courrages. Apparently the camera does not have replaceable batteries. When I get an ugly one I will...
Hello List, Not sure who was asking, but several years ago, my Minolta Disc-7 internal battery died. It was not made to be replaced easily, but after opening...

Hello All, I'm shortly aiming to use the Minox B and/or C on the beach and over water, conditions that are likely to test the bright end of the cameras'...
My understanding is that those ND filters are all over the place (so probably #1). I'd trust your C, but since the B has a touchier meter I would run a test ...
... The ND filters come is several levels .03 .06 .09 etc. the amount of light they cut depends on which one(s) you use. Sone brands may be maked as 1 stop,...
Yeah, but in the case of a Minox camera you only get the ND that Minox installed for you... and they put different level filters in different cameras, even in ...
Sorry for not being clear: I meant the internal ND filters built into the Minox C and Minox B. In the US manual for the C, it's called the "gray" filter....
Thanks Mark. I'm particularly interested in your observation that filters in different Minoxes are likely of different levels / strengths / darknesses /...
... With all this discussion of the films that were in use in the 1930s, when the Minox was created, vs. the 1950s and 1960s, it's very important to remember...
Interesting question. I know Minox increased the density of the ND filter over the years to meet the expected average ASA that people might have in the camera....
If you ever have to do this job again, consider using TIX solder, which has a melting point barely above the boiling point of water. I've used it for many...
... Note: ".. 4 to 6 times" does not mean 4 to 6 F-stops. Each F-stop is a double/half of the needed shutter open time to get the same amount of light: Two...
... Excellent catch, Roy, thanks. Is there some variability in the effect of a given ND filter -- variability that might have caused Minox to quote the effect...
... I have no idea of the variability of the filters used in these cameras. I would expect (just a guess) that the variance among filters from Kodak would be...
I just aquired a Minox EC as a back-up/snap-shooting/travel minox and for flash use. After playing with it a little, I have some questions: 1) Does the...
