Minolta SRT Advertisment

The Minolta SRT Series was introduced in 1965 with the SRT-101 and ended in 1984 with the SRT-201c. Minolta produced certain models of their SLRs under different names for the US, European, and Asian markets. An example of this, is the SRT-102 sold as the SRT-303 in Europe and the SRT Super in Asia...the SRT-200 was also marketed as the SRT-100x, and the SRT-202 as the SR-505. Minolta continued this practice into the Third Generation "X" Series SLRs. Minolta produced a series of SRTs for sale in SEARS as the SRT-SC (srt-100) and SRT-SCII (srt-200), KMART as the SRT-MC (srt-100) and SRT-MCII (srt-101), and models for J.C. Penney also. Some features such as Mirror Lockup and Depth of Field Lock were removed from newer models. I started to collect Minolta SRTs (on the camera it's sr-T) in the 1980s. I now have over 30 of the series in my collection. The Minolta SRT is a tank of a camera, and has a history of exemplary performance around the world. I'll be adding more photos and advertisments as I scan them. Thank you for looking.
