MINOLTA SR-7 (model V)
Anoher love at first sight. I thought that Minolta did not have a camera that I would consider a design classic, like the Spotmatic. Well, apparently they did, and this is it, the 1965 Minolta SR-7. The camera is superbly designed, very neat, simple, balanced, full of elegance that manages to desguise the camera's width. The SR-7 was the world's first SLR equipped with a cds cell. The model V has basically the same system, but more refined. A really wonderful camera that reminds me of the Olympus OM-1 under certain angles.
