Talk:List of Minolta products

Photometers
Minolta also created a range of photometers, some of which are still popular and in great use today. Many of their light meters reach over 200 GBP second hand on Ebay. Latest products here: http://ca.konicaminolta.com/products/consumer/camera-pus/slr/acc/acc_meters.html

Minolta Maxxum 70/Dynax 60/Alpha 70
Can any one verify if this is the correct model number for the Maxxum/Dynax/Alpha camera in this list. This link http://www.photozone.de/2Equipment/minoltacamera.htm, is showing that the Dynax 60 is also called to Maxxum 60. (Sloman 21:15, 20 February 2007 (UTC))

Lenses?
Shouldn't Minolta lenses appear on this product page? Vandykee (talk) 01:46, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

Off-topic section removed
I removed this section about different viewfinder technologies from the article. This information probably belongs somewhere, but I'm pretty sure it's not "List of Minolta products." Thoughts? Camerafiend (talk) 03:46, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

Viewfinder / previewfinder notes
Functionally, there are probably "only" two types of viewfinders (or more accurately, pre-view finders):


 * direct, where you look at your subject through the camera, these are generally considered "viewfinders"
 * indirect, where you look at your camera (near view) while the camera looks at your subject (distant view), these are generally considered viewfinderless or LCD-only

There are at least three types of implementations of these "viewfinders", especially for digital cameras:


 * TTL EL EVF (direct) which is through the lens, eye level, electronic view finder, as in Minolta's DiMage A-series and Z-series cameras.
 * TTL LCD (indirect) which is through the lens liquid crystal display, which is also an optional mode of use on Minolta's DiMage A-series and Z-series cameras, an alternate mode on Minolta's DiMage E-series and Konica G-series cameras, and is the only mode on the final Konica Minolta X-series camera.
 * DV (direct) which is direct view, not through the taking lens, which is a mode on the Minolta DiMage E-series and X-series cameras and the Konica G-series cameras, and so on.

As noted, some cameras offer two previewing modes.
