The camera (also known as the Dynax 3000i) is an incredibly simple-to-use 35mm film SLR camera from the early 90s. It includes the classic Minolta Maxxum AF 50mm f1.7 lens. A Minolta Maxxum D314 i flash is also included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is an \"auto everything\" camera: you just need to frame the shot and push the shutter button and you'll get a sharp well-exposed image. It is, without a doubt, the easiest-to-use film SLR we have ever tested. \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eThe camera and lens combo does allow for manual focus use if desired. The camera uses a beeping sound to confirm focus (this cannot be switched off). \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 3000i is also a good choice as a film camera for anyone who uses a Sony Alpha-series digital SLR with A-mount lenses (the lenses are compatible).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eBattery info\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe camera requires a 2CR5 lithium battery (optional). The flash doesn't require an extra battery (it draws power from the camera's battery).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBattery Performance (at 20ºC according to Minolta):\u003cbr\u003eThe 6-volt 2C5 lithium battery should provide sufficient power for shooting up to 40 rolls of 24-exposure film without flash, and up to 20 rolls of 24-exposure film using flash D-314i on 50% of the exposures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExample photos\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere are some pictures that other people have taken with the 3000i (please see the descriptions, the lenses used may be different for a given photo): \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.lomography.com\/cameras\/3320996-minolta-dynax-3000i\/photos\"\u003ehttps:\/\/www.lomography.com\/cameras\/3320996-minolta-dynax-3000i\/photos\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd here are photos taken with the Maxxum AF 50mm f1.7 lens using a variety of cameras (see descriptions): \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.lomography.com\/lenses\/201-minolta-af-50-mm-f-1-7\/photos\"\u003ehttps:\/\/www.lomography.com\/lenses\/201-minolta-af-50-mm-f-1-7\/photos\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe camera was tested with a shutter analyzer and all shutter shutter speeds are working with very good accuracy and shutter curtain symmetry (an important factor for even exposure).
