Minolta's advanced multimode SLR — one of the earliest with both aperture and shutter priority.

The Minolta XD5 (XD-s or XD-7 in some markets) was part of the XD series — one of the first SLRs to offer both aperture-priority and shutter-priority auto exposure. The XD series was groundbreaking for multimode auto exposure.

Dual auto exposure modes — aperture-priority and shutter-priority. The multimode capability was revolutionary. LED viewfinder display. Minolta MD mount lens system. Electronically controlled vertical-travel metal shutter.

35mm film. Minolta MD mount. Compact body. Electronic shutter with dual auto modes. LED viewfinder. Hot shoe. Self-timer. The XD was one of the most advanced consumer SLRs of the late 1970s.

Available used at budget to mid-range prices. The XD series was historically important — one of the first multimode SLRs. The Minolta MD lens system is excellent. Check for electronic function — battery-dependent. For film enthusiasts appreciating camera history.
