The Unofficial Official Photography Thread...

Bought my self a Konica Minolta Dynax 7D - the first DSLR I ever had in 2005 and nostalgia lead me to buy a lovely example for £50.
I have the M42 adaptor so can use some classic Helios lenses and also have a full set of primes (which I have with my 35mm Dynax 7)
Perfect ergonomics and shooting in RAW means I can bring out the details and colour - only 6MP but that’s enough for me.

I recently sold the Sony A900 full frame 24MP A Mount camera (having the Minolta meant I could use modern or more recent Sony cameras) I wasn’t keen on it as it was too heavy and bulky plus I find the colours on the ancient APSC Minolta 7D much more pleasing with a nicer rendering
But I took some photos at my nieces wedding using the Minolta 100mm f2.8 macro and the Helio 44-2 Russian lens
