Minolta X-300, MD Rokkor 2.0 / 45mm

Back Language

Minolta X-300, given by one of my customers, MD Rokkor 2.0/45mm, given by another one.

Minolta X-300The first owner had bought another body, because this one did'nt release the shutter; it was in the back of the storeroom, and with me, it worked without any problem. So the photographer told me to put it with my belongings, to make room. I never had to do any repairing on it. The 45mm lens is also a gift from one customer, but I do not remember who; at the beginning, I used it with the 28-80mm Tamron.

And the "silver" version, given by Joël Leroux on may 6th, 2008.

Minolta X-300Ubelieveable! even a professionnal photographer who doesn't know that some cameras cannot work without batteries! He tried anything, shaking it, knocking on it... And when I settled two LR44 batteries, he didn't believe it could work!
It works!

Another, bought by Christophe in october 2010, out of order but with a winder (Auto Winder G).

Minolta X-300 MoteurThe shutter does not work. But the winder can be used on one of the other X300...

Edit November 2018: It is repaired, I only had to replace a capacitor under the sole. Thanks to Gerard who provided the explanation ... and the capacitor.
