Performance: Performance is based on Minolta’s standard test
method using 25 exposure IX240 film, a V 28-
56 f/4 - 5.6 lens and fresh batteries. The lens is
focused from infinity to 2.0 m and back twice
and the shutter-release button held partway
down for ten seconds before the shutter is
released. Exposures are taken at a rate of two
rolls per month.
If more operations are performed during use,
battery performance will be lower. To maximize
battery performance, slide the main switch to
lock when the camera is not in use.
