    It's like Christmas!

    Wow! All these new toys, may as well add in my addition, I recieved today from a fellow church member a very good condition Minolta X7-A with a 50mm f/1.7 lens. Now I tried to look on the 'Net for anything about this camera, but couldn't find anything! So I need some help, specifically a manual.

    Re: It's like Christmas!

    This guy lists a manual for an XG-A and also an XG-7. Scroll down to the bottom of the page, could either of these be what you have?

    I bought a manual from him once and it was a PDF file scanned from the original (if it's old enough there's some loophole with the copyright).

    Here's another site to try for the manual. I see the X7A in pdf format.

    Lara,

    Yeah, I saw that one also, but the link no longer works. The Konica Minolta turned up one!

    Yep, it's a great little camera, works with all my mc lens also! So I don't have to go buying all sorts of lens, next step, motor winder.

    Good that you got one!

    It did come up when I tried it on the site I suggested though. That's weird.

    This is the link that worked when I brought it up.
    Do you have Adobe Acrobat Reader installed?

    In any case, have fun with the camera.
