The Minolta Hi-Matic is a huge bang for the buck. A "perfect normal lens" with a leaf shutter, rugged construction, and large (f1.8) aperture.
The lens has great bokeh, and nice saturation on colour slides. Shutter is accurate, viewfinder and RF clear and precise. It's a nice sample from the era of consumer RF cameras (early 1960s), and is much more solid than the otherwise admired Canonets.
I can't vouch for the CdS meter, but those things are never that useful anyway.
Included are a wrist strap and a soft release to make depressing the shutter more comfortable.
75$ + shipping OBO, Paypal.
