"My little Pretty (one of them 😎)"

As announced yesterday while chatting with @dirt , I picked out a picture of my ancient #Minolta #Dimage7. This picture was taken a few months ago when I repaired this camera as a successor to the Z3, which had recently died.

With the new(😁) firmware from 2004 or 2005, it now even 'eats' SD cards in via CF adapter. And the operating time is long enough with Li-ion batteries (real 1.5 volts!), so I don't have to replace the batteries anymore after taking just 5-10 pictures.

It's really fun to shoot with!

Unfortunately she died some time ago - img sensor damage. 🥴

A Dimage 7 (and a 7i, too) have now taken their place. There will be an image of this camera later. :wink:

After years of using either small mirrorless cameras or big full-frame DSLRs, I needed reach and autofocus for an indoor sports event today and the only camera that could provide me with both is my ancient Pentax K20D DSLR. Autofocus kinda sucks, the sensor is noisy and has a limited dynamic range, but ohboy, it's handling is just absolutely AMAZING!
People at Pentax really knew how to design a camera, the camera feels like it was made for my hands.
