Minolta X-700 35mm SLR Film Camera + 50mm F/1.4

The Minolta X-700 is a top-tier manual focus 35mm SLR from the golden era of film photography, blending full manual control with aperture priority automation and program mode—all in a compact, beautifully engineered body. Paired here with the fast and highly regarded Minolta MD Rokkor-X 50mm f/1.4, this setup is perfect for everything from street shooting to low-light portraits.

Launched in the early 1980s, the X-700 was Minolta’s flagship amateur model, boasting a bright viewfinder, full-info LED metering display, and auto-exposure modes that make shooting a breeze. The 50mm f/1.4 lens is known for its tack-sharp rendering and smooth, cinematic bokeh—one of the best standard primes from the manual-focus era.

Condition:
Excellent

This Minolta X-700 is in excellent condition and fully functional. The shutter fires accurately across all speeds, the film advance is smooth, and the meter is responsive in all modes. The viewfinder is clean and bright, with minimal internal dust. The 50mm f/1.4 lens is clean and clear, with no haze, fungus, or scratches, and only the most minor internal dust—nothing that affects image quality. Focus is buttery smooth and the aperture blades are clean and snappy.

A beautiful, ready-to-shoot kit with one of the best lenses Minolta ever made—equally suited for students, collectors, or serious film shooters looking for a high-performance everyday camera.
