Description
Camera is a working microformat SLR with original case.
During the popularity of th 110 miniature format only two companies attempted to marry the advanced capabilities of an SLR with the convenience of the 110 cartridge system. Minolta was one of them. The 110 Zoom features a 50-25 zoom lens with 4.5f max aperture, flash hot shoe, built in electric meter, -2/+2 EV compensation, and automatic override mode. Today they are a rare find. Includes original case. While all cameras sold through Whitleys Auctioneers are sold untested and as-is, the film advance/shutter/shutter release mechanics operate as expected, and a cursory press of the meter pre-set button shows the exposure monitor LED lighting up, with the existing battery in place.
Issued: 1970s
Dimensions: 2.5"H x 5.25"L x 4.25"W
Manufacturer: Minolta
Country of Origin: Japan
