Vintage Minolta Hi Matic11 Rangefinder 35mm Film camera 219902 * Read*
The Hi-Matic 11 by Minolta is a Japanese 35mmrangefinder camera - introduced in 1969. It is similar to the Minolta Hi-Matic 9. Like the 9, the 11 has an automatic exposure program, automatic flash control, and the Contrast Light Compensator (CLC) meter, offering better metering in high contrast situations (which is explained further on the Minolta Hi-Matic 7s page). Unlike the 9, it has shutter priority mode and no aperture ring. The three modes, automatic program, shutter priority, and automatic flash control constitute the "Super 3 Circuit" branded on the front. This was the last of the large Hi-Matics (7, 7S, 9, 11), and possibly offers the best user experience of the group.
This Camera overall is in great condition, Each function works in this camera, Advanced lever pulls nicely and Aperture are good & snappy at all speed. Film counter works as well as Film winder is good. Viewfinder is relatively clean. Light meter in this camera doesn't work and based on this issue, item being sold as is.
