For Sale: Minolta XG9 (Silver) + MD Rokkor 45mm f/2 🥞

Up for sale is a beautiful Minolta XG9, the high-end flagship SLR of the XG series. Unlike the more common XG-1 or XG-M, the XG9 features a much-improved, brighter viewfinder that shows your shutter speeds giving you total creative control.

This is paired with the cult-classic 45mm f/2 "Pancake" lens, making for an incredibly compact, "go-anywhere" setup that fits easily into a small bag or jacket pocket.
