I don't know how I missed your picture Craig. Sunset is one of my favorite times of day, and the Minolta SRT 102 is an absolute jewel from what I have been told. So, where was this picture taken, and what time of year?

Actually, the Minolta SRT 101, 102, 201, 202 were built like the proverbial brick sh** house.

I used to take a Minolta 201 with me on caving trips in an ammo box. It never let me down and I've gotten a few pretty good ones out of it. I had to get rid of it after the battery supply dried up and my eyes started having problems getting accurate focus.

Wonderful image Gary, and great tones. Do you remember what film you used for it?

That's pretty sweet Gary. I also have an SRT200 at home that needs to be overhauled (seals started to get pretty bad and now they jammed up the shutter so it doesn't close all the way). I also heard it was some to-do to change the battery to a newer low voltage one because it throws the meter off. Too bad it costs so much to overhaul cameras these days. I have a 50mm and a nice 135mm lens that I might want to get rid of too I'm pretty sure those are in good condition still.
