Minolta XG1 (1979 - 1984)
I got this one from an op shop (thrift store) it was in a sorry state, covered in what looked like rust. I got it so that I could have a go at repairing it. It ended up only needing a good clean (rust will come off with a light rub of steel wool if a camera is brushed steel). It works well (now) and is nice to hold. It's not overly heavy but feels sturdy.
Film Type: 35mm (canister)
