This camera includes a sharp and fast Minolta Rokkor X 50mm f1.7 lens. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is an ideal camera for a person who shoots primarily in aperture-priority auto exposure. It's more basic than its much-lauded contemporary, the X-700, but a very capable camera nevertheless. The primary difference between XG-1n and the higher-end manual focus Minoltas is that it lacks a full metered manual mode (you can, however, meter in aperture-priority mode and then set you manual controls). \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe XG-1n requires two LR44 or 357 batteries (optional). \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition notes \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe film tested this camera and lens combo and they delivered sharp, correctly exposed images.
