Minolta X-370 - Minolta MD 35mm f/1.7 Lens - 35mm Film SLR Camera
Year Released: 1984
Fun Fact: The X-370 was the final link in a chain of Minolta manual focus (MF) consumer SLRs that were a direct response to the unmatched sales success of the Canon AE-1.
The Minolta X-370 was released in the early 1990s as Minolta’s entry-level SLR. Minolta were still producing manual-focus SLRs – the X-700 wasn’t discontinued until 1999 – but their priorities clearly lay in autofocus, the technology of the future. The X-370s, though a child of the nineties, was no more modern than the X-300 released way back in 1984.
A self-timer? The X-370 has you covered. Auto-exposure lock? It has that too (while the Minolta XD, an otherwise fantastic camera, doesn’t). Exposure compensation? Not as such, but you can instead adjust the ISO dial (e.g. to overexpose ISO 400 film by one stop, set the dial to 200), or just switch to manual mode instead. It is these additional features – especially the ability to shoot in manual – which make the X-370 a great camera not just for beginners, but for advanced amateurs too.
The X-370 and its variants are electronically operated, which means they don’t work without batteries, and are more prone to failure than fully mechanical cameras. However, it's a great little camera and its batteries are commonly found.
This model is fitted with a Minolta MD 35mm f/1.7 lens. It's clean, functional, and fully covered under Film Scouts' 30 day warranty.
