While I wait for my other post to get replied, thought I would tell you how I got my camera.
I went with my boyfriend to a Fly wheelers festive that they have in Boyne. If no ones ever been there, its mainly about tractors and a lot of almost personal re-sale shops. My first year going.
Anyways I found the Minolta and the guy was originally going to sell it for $50. The only thing was that he wasn't sure if the camera would work and because of that he sold it to me for $20! It ended up working really well. The film developed nicely too. The only thing that doesn't work is the light to check if the battery is working or not and sometimes the back hinge gets stuck.
