  • The Minolta X370 is a perfect film camera that shoots infinite film, even if the film prices have gone up, there's no getting away from the real vintage look. Not even the fujifilm x100v #fujifilmx100v can replace that.

      ❤‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭6:10‭-‬18‬ ‭Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints. The bible is no old book. You have to really let Christ open your eyes; to see the world in shambles. Many people say it's a religion to lock up people in chains, and say it's a rule book.. why? Because people hate hearing the truth, it hurts their flesh, it's hurts their pride, it's exposes on what things have they done..people love this world so much, s*x, money, power, women, supercars.. things of this world. Still trying to find something that can fill that emptiness in your heart. You can't find that in this world.. only in Christ, the bible is no chains, it's a chainbreaker. Breaking your sins into pieces... Repent now, and turn back to the true Lord only.. God bless.

    • @MMIGZ
      @MMIGZ Před 7 měsíci

      @@MeroFTP Sure! Minolta X-700 was Minolta’s latest of the range. Has all the bells and whistles you need as a newbie: aperture priority, exposure compensation, timer, stepless shutter speed, light meter. It’s also lightweight. One thing to mention is it’s electronic, so you can’t shoot without having batteries in, which is bad because the X-700 is known to fail due to it’s diodes, however I haven’t encountered this problem so if you’re going to get one, get a recently serviced one!
      Others also say the X-500 is better since the light meter shows which shutter speed you’re on, as well as what the recommended shutter speed is, whereas the X-700 only shows the recommendation.
      I recently bought a Minolta SRT 303b (202 in the US), which is Minolta’s previous range to the X line. The SRT range all are fully mechanical cameras, so you wouldn’t have to worry about failing electronics. Built like tanks and considerably weighs heavier than the X-700. What’s good about Minolta is that they made so many great lenses, so there’s an abundance out there for cheap! The MC and MD lenses are compatible for the SRT range and X range, so you can buy one set of lenses and interchange between both cameras.
      If you’re looking for other electronic cameras that aren’t Minolta, look for:
      - Canon AE-1 Programme
      - Nikon F2 / F3
      If you’re looking for fully mechanical cameras that aren’t Minolta, look for:
      - Pentax K1000
      - Olympus OM 1 / 2 etc.
      As a newbie, don’t get caught up on getting the most expensive equipment, although Minoltas are cheaper it doesn’t mean they suck! Have a browse on opinions on Reddit and CZcams, and pick a brand you like. Minolta is great because they’re cheap and have great lenses!

      Better deals can be had on the 1980's, 90's, and early 200's era autofocus SLRs too, although someone might possibly not see you are a retro cool film photographer on first glance. I just picked up a Maxxum 70 for $35 the other day.
