Minolta's entry X-series — X-370/X-300, aperture-priority auto, electronic shutter, MD mount, 1983.

The Minolta X-370 was introduced in 1983 as an entry model of the X-series, sold as the X-300 in Europe and other markets. It sat below the X-570 and X-700 in the range and offered aperture-priority automation in a low-cost body that stayed in production for many years.

It is an electronically controlled 35mm SLR on the Minolta SR/MC/MD bayonet, here labelled Minolta MD. It uses an electronic focal-plane shutter and offers aperture-priority automatic exposure along with manual control. Metering is through-the-lens and centre-weighted, with LED indications in the finder. Because the shutter is electronically timed the camera needs a working battery to fire and does not operate normally without one.

The X-370 suits beginners, students and travellers who want simple aperture-priority automation in a light, inexpensive body. It is easy to use with clear finder LEDs, though it lacks the program mode and TTL flash of the X-700 and depends fully on its electronics.

On the used market, test the shutter across its range and confirm the auto exposure system responds to changing light. Foam light seals and mirror-damper foam commonly perish and usually need renewal. As an electronic body it relies on its circuitry, so check the meter, LEDs and auto system, be aware ageing capacitors and electronics can fail, and clean the battery contacts. Inspect the prism for haze, feel the advance and rewind, and note the body will not fire without a working battery.
