Hello camera collectors: I have a good collection of some nice manual focus Minolta SLRs. I want to add a nice autofocus camera to the stable. A Minolta Maxxum 650si caught my eye. The control knobs are a big plus. I have read the specs and reviews on this camera and I want to get one. Does anyone on here have this camera? Is it a good one to get or should I stay away from it.

nobody replied? In my experience the A-mount minoltas are unreliable electronically. Your SR mount lenses won't fit of coutse.

Maybe to add to the confusion, the AF minoltas i've got or came across are a bit of a mixed bag, some work others won't. As a general rule all cameras with sofisticated electronics in them are a bit of a risk, once broken they rarely can be fixed. On the other hand if such cameras are your "thing" most off them can be had dirt cheap so they can be fun for little money.
