Minolta XG-M Camera with Accessories in Carrying Case
This lot comprises a Minolta XG-M single-lens reflex camera offered with a selection of accessories housed in a silver-finished aluminium carrying case with blue foam interior. The camera body is finished in silver and black and carries the Minolta name on the prism housing and a branded black woven neck strap with red stitching. A standard lens with a numbered focus scale is fitted, with top-plate dials for shutter speed and film speed visible on the body.
Accompanying items include a black leather case marked Prinzflex, a black leather lens pouch, a leather camera pouch, a boxed Hoya filter, several further filters and filter holders, and a number of cleaning cloths. Additional items are loose within the case and are offered as seen.
Condition and Collector Interest
The camera and accessories are offered as seen, and their working order has not been tested. Wear consistent with age and use is visible on the leather cases and body. The accessories are presented together in their original case, which adds to the presentation of the lot.
The Minolta XG-M is a manual-focus SLR from a well-regarded range of Japanese film cameras, and lots of this kind, with the case and matching accessories, appeal to film photography enthusiasts, vintage camera collectors and those starting out with analogue photography.
