Minolta X-500 body with Rokkor MD 50mm F1.7 lens. very nice set

Minolta introduced the model X-500 in 1983 as a lower cost model alternative to the X-700. It used the same chassis as the rest of the Minolta X series and the standard Minolta SR mount lenses. The different between the top model X-700 and the X-500 is that the X-500 lacked the fully automatic program exposure mode. However the X-500 added a important feature that would be a part of all subsequent X series cameras, but never added on the model X-700 a match LED exposure meter. This system indicated the selected shutter speed with a blinking LED and suggested shutter speed, based on the  exposure value and selected lens aperture, with a solid LED.
