Bought my Minolta XD7 in 1983. I admire the look en feel of this camera. The viewfinder is the brightest of all contemporary SLR's. The plain acute matt screen has no additional focusing aid. The sound of the shutter is both quiet and seductive. The Minolta XD camera and matching Rokkor MD lenses are true pieces of art. And a joy to use. Currently addicted to the Leica M10.
