I've got a vague feeling you like Minoltas, Randy. And SRTs in particular.
I know you've restored some of them, and you've done it extremely well!

My second SLR, the one after my Exacta VXII a, was a Minolta SR2. I still have it and its box. I still remember the unbelievably bright viewfinder image compared to the Exacta.
What a splendid collection!

I must be the only forum member who has never owned a Minolta. In fact, I've never even held a Minolta. Go figure.

I love a parade! Beautiful cameras, Randy. I feel like a piker with my 3 SRT's   SR 505 ? Missed that one when I was reading up on them. My Maxxum does not feel or handle nearly as well as the SRT's. Roy |

The SR 505 is the Japanese version of the SRT 202. There was also a rare SR 505S. Also, my SRT MCII is one I hopped up with a mirror box and center section from an SRT 101b. It has a self timer and mirror lock up.

Cool collection of great shooters Randy. I still grab up old SRTs when I see them cheaply enough, must have 5 SRT101s by now.

Very nice collection you have going there.

You probably are the only forum member that has never held or owned a Minolta. Even I have owned and used a Minolta SRT 101.

My first SLR was an SRT200 that I got for high school graduation. Of course, I still use it.
That is a nice collection. I didn't realize that there were so many variations on the SR theme.
