The x-370s has everything you need to make your imagination a reality in pictures. Like aperture-priority automatic exposure -- where you set the aperture, and the camera automatically selects the optimum shutter speed to give you correct exposure. And full metered manual exposure control -- giving you full reign over both the aperture and the shutter speed, to create the types of images you envision in your mind. Plus, the full selection of Minolta X-Series lenses and accessories lets you make the most out of the x-370s' abilities.
The handsomely-designed Minolta X-370s incorporates a number of performance features that let the user take command of every photographic opportunity. Quartz-controlled circuitry provides the consistent and dependable precision needed for outstanding results. Automatic exposure control with automatic exposure lock assures proper exposure under normal and complex lighting conditions. Viewfinder displays confirm operating status and exposure information. And, metered manual exposure control provides unlimited creativity in aperture/shutter speed combinations. Finally, with a full selection of available lenses and accessories, the x-370s is an SLR system one can grow with. That is why Minolta's X-Series SLRs have long been favorites of photography students, amateurs, and professionals alike.
The x-370s' aperture-priority automatic exposure control provides accurate exposures under a wide range of lighting conditions. Simply set a desired lens aperture, and the camera selects the appropriate shutter speed steplessly from 4 sec. to 1/1000 sec. A shutter speed scale is displayed in the viewfinder. As the user rotates the lens' aperture selector ring, viewfinder LEDs light up next to the corresponding shutter speeds, so the user can also use this method to set exposure based on a desired shutter speed.
The x-370s' through-the-lens exposure metering system reads the entire image frame, with the greatest emphasis on objects in the center. Center-weighted metering is a familiar and reliable, time-tested system used by a broad range of photographers from beginner to professional. With the various types of metering patterns available in today's electronically sophisticated SLR cameras, center-weighted metering still remains in great demand.
