Minolta Maxxum 9000The Minolta Maxxum 9000 was Minolta's pro caliber SLR in the early autofocus days, and it's a real interesting one: it has full autofocus function but, unlike every other Maxxum camera, it has no motor drive built in, relying on good old fashioned thumb winder. The rewind knob is my favourite rewind knob, which yes, I have a favourite rewind knob, I spend all day doing camera stuff so these things happen. Anyway, it looks and acts like a metering mode

The Minolta Maxxum 9000 was Minolta's pro-caliber SLR in the early autofocus days, and it's a real interesting one: it has full autofocus function but, unlike every other Maxxum camera, it has no motor drive built in, relying on good old-fashioned thumb winder. The rewind knob is my favourite rewind knob, which yes, I have a favourite rewind knob, I spend all day doing camera stuff so these things happen. Anyway, it looks and acts like a metering mode selector dial until you pull up on it; it's connected by a pair of hinged rods, which you skew sideways to create a lever arm that you use for rewinding. It's pretty sweet. Anyway, the camera is in good cosmetic condition, with some wear from use and handling; shutter speeds, metering and film advance are good. It's compatible with Minolta AF lenses, which are sold separately.
