Minolta X-370 / X-300 / X-7A
The Minolta X-300 (known as the X-370 in North America) was originally marketed as a low-cost alternative to the Minolta X-500. Minolta stripped off some of the features present on the X-500 model in order to reduce the cost of the camera. Despite lacking some of these features, such as a depth of field preview, the X-300/370 is definitely a solid 35mm SLR. For starters, it has full compatibility with Minolta's line of MD and MC mount lenses, allowing for a variety of great optics. Additionally, the exposure can be set either manually or in a shutter priority mode. Shutter speeds range from 1 second up to 1/1000th in manual mode, but extend out to 4 seconds in shutter priority. The camera also has an easy-to-use meter that displays both the selected shutter speed, as well as the suggested shutter speed, simultaneously in the viewfinder.
The Minolta X-370 was marketed in North America with only a black and chrome finish, but Minolta later released an all-black version for North America called the X7-A.
