Maxxum 7000 introduction pages 2 & 3
More copy describing the revolutionary Minolta Maxxum 7000.
Aside from the revolutionary autofocus scheme, this was also an iconic 1980s design in its motorized film advance, LCD top display, pushbutton interface, and complete dependence on four AAA batteries to operate.
Unfortunately for Minolta, courts would later rule that its autofocus scheme had infringed on Honeywell "Visitronic" patents from the 1970s. This would prove rather expensive for Minolta and the camera industry as a whole.
