Here we have a fully functional and excellent condition Minolta Maxxum 3000i 35mm film SLR camera, with Minolta 50mm F/1.7 fast prime lens.

Both the camera and lens are in great condition and are fully functional in every way. The set is being sold at a discount because the camera grip has been repaired and the lens is engraved on the barrel. These do not impact performance or images.

Batteries are not included with this camera.

This camera is the kind of camera that's perfect for beginners or for people who are looking to take beautiful film photographs without having to worry about the difficulty of setting exposure or dealing with the complicated settings of manual photography. Simply point, shoot, and the camera will take amazing images via its auto-exposure program mode and through Minolta's amazing A mount lenses.

An excellent choice for someone who wants a lightweight camera and who's looking to focus on composition and framing.

It's well made, long-lasting, and solid.

The lens is a very fine example of a capable Minolta-made autofocus lens. The multicoated glass corrects distortion and solves optical aberrations such as color-fringing and lens flares. The focal length of 50mm is versatile, allowing shooting from wide angle to portraits and is good for most types of general photography.

Featuring auto-focus and switchable manual focus, the camera gives some artistic control to the shooter. Add to this the automatic film advance and rewind, bright viewfinder, and comfortable ergonomics, and the 3000i is a camera that will make its owner happy.

It accepts any of Minolta's excellent A-mount lenses, which means that this is a camera that can grow with you as you buy more lenses for specialized shooting.

It will be carefully packaged and shipped immediately.
