Minolta SR-T MC 35mm SLR + Rokkor 50mm f/1.7 Lens – Tested – Clean – Manual

Description
The Minolta SR-T MC is a classic 35mm manual-focus SLR camera built in Japan between 1973 and 1975. Known for its robust metal construction and reliable mechanical operation, it features through-the-lens (TTL) metering via Minolta’s CLC (Contrast Light Compensator) system. Paired with the sharp and fast Rokkor 50mm f/1.7 lens, this setup is ideal for portraits, street photography, and general-purpose shooting. Fully manual controls offer creative flexibility, making it a favourite among film enthusiasts and collectors.
