My "new" camera just arrived!

I decided to buy a 35 mm camera to play with along side my digitals and I found a Minolta XD11 that I thought was reasonable. I had one for years (along with an XE-7) and it took superb pictures. When this arrived with the 50 f1.7 and a Tamron zoom, I was pleasantly surprised. I paid $80 for the whole kit (plus shipping) and now I am anxious for the rain to stop so I can try this heavy beast.

I also resurrected my old Yashica T4 to see if it still works. I bought a new battery and some film and it powered right up. I plan to sell the T4 so I can use the money to buy more stuff. I am amazed at what people apparently pay for a used T4. Mine is unmarked and seems to work perfectly. This camera took a lot of great slides.

Post up some pics of the camera!
I too just bought a couple Petri 7's 35mm's.

Stoked to have found a f/1.8 45mm.
