Think you mean the Yashica 200 series? The 108 MP had all the electronic features, but it wasn't autofocus...

John Actually I meant 108 MP but unintentionally put it to the wrong bunch. Regards Reijo Yashica 108 MP (1989) Olympus OM-707 (1986 The first and last Olympus autofocus SLR. As you can see the Sigma Mini-Wide lens is not an autofocus lens. This combination was on the table of a local rummage sale. The camera is not working. The shutter release push button was poked in with force. This could be the only fault. I made a quasi-repair to get it look better in the picture. Minolta Dynax 8000i / Maxxum 8000i (1990) Nikon 801s (1990)

I STILL have a pile of Nikons. Considering starting a collection of Ricoh SLRs and RFs.

That OM-707 is a real keeper - even if it was a failure. The flash sync speed on that thing was 1/2000!... unheard of until that time. Fortunately, you can mount OM-mount manual focus lenses on it. The Olympus AF lenses never did work. Neat piece of history!

It is a Chinese brand. If I'm right they made the latest Minolta X700 cameras too.

Correct. They are both K-mount setups.
