And full metered manual exposure control -- giving you full reign over both the aperture and the shutter speed, to create the types of images you envision in your mind. Plus, the full selection of Minolta X-Series lenses and accessories lets you make the most out of the X-370s abilities.

5.0 out of 5 stars My first "real" camera, May 9, 2011

I bought this summer in my high school years, and I still have it. I mowed lawns and worked odd jobs until I saved up enough money to buy one with a 45mm lens, summer of 1987. I learned so much on this camera, such as how to control f-stops and shutter speeds, the need for a good flash, and that stacking teleconverters behind a cheap lens is a very poor replacement for a good zoom lens. This is the perfect camera for a beginner. It looks like a real camera, but isn't loaded down with so many controls and buttons that it's intimidating.
I followed Minolta later on with an X-700 and a Maxxum 7000. I was all set to step over to digital with Minolta, then they sadly stopped making cameras for consumers! How dare they. So I threw up my hands and jumped ship over to.. -ahem- Nikon. Still, I value all of the lessons I learned on this camera which continue to serve me.

I could not be any happier with my Minolta than I already am.
I love the way it looks, feels, and sounds.
I really appreciated the seller including batteries and a roll of film,
and I started taking pictures almost as soon as it arrived.
The manual I found for it online was easy to comprehend,
which makes learning film simpler.
The Minolta x-370 arrived in wonderful condition,
carefully wrapped in bubble wrap.
It is everything I wanted, I would recommend it to anyone and everyone.

I bought this camera years ago and never had a problem with it. Gave me great snaps and is still going strong. Close ups are really nice with the right lens. I suggest this camera to those newbies for experience with a real camera. There's a big difference when you get nice clear snaps.
