Good Points

So easy to use. Great photos in all conditions. I won several competitions with my X700 and I am sure it was down to the camera not me!

Bad Points

No auto focus, but is it really a bad point!!

General Comments

I have had the Minolta X-700 for about 16 years and it is still going strong. Never had any problems. Not being used as much with the introduction of digital, but there will always be a place for 35mm SLRs.
