MINOLTA 110 Zoom SLR

First SLR for the 110 format. Launched in 1975, at the peak of 110 format popularity. Strange design, in a way it follows the accepted shape of the 110 camera and puts a prism on top. It is neither beautiful, compact or particularly functional. It came with a Zoom lens, not very common at that time. For me though, the Pentax Auto 110 is the marvel of 110, witho no concessions in technology or quality. This minolta has aperture priority, but non TTL metering, a bit passé in 1975. Still, it would be the sort of camera that would equip peple of the darke side of the force....
