Goodwill, $8. Going to be fun!
Earlier this past weekend, I bought:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/jerryvo/1474158004/It'* so much fun using this thing, built in 1975, LIKE A TANK! Indestructible. Got a good deal.
Yesterday, my brother and I bought:

Got an even BETTER deal (to the tune of $320 off retail). Arrives next week.

Hey Jerry I have the Minolta SRT 101. So you decided to get another 35MM. I haven't touched the Nikon F90 in years. I think there'* still film in it from when you took picture with it.
You are obsesed my friend.

I have a 1973 Yashica with a couple lenses I am looking to get rid of if you are interested. Comes with a case, case for the larger lense, and some other little extras.

^ygpm!
edit: Hans, I already have a gamut of Minolta Autofocus glass that carries over to Sony DSLRs. Sony bought Konica Minolta'* DSLR division in 2005 or so and is carrying on their lens mount.![Smile](https://www.gmforum.com/gm/images/smilies/smile.gif)
On the A700 I'll be using:
Minolta 50mm f/1.7 prime lens
Minolta 28-85mm f/3.5-4.5
Minolta 70-210 f/4 "Beercan"
Sigma 28-70mm f/2.8 EX DG
Tokina AF193 19-35mm f/3.5-4.5 super-wide angle

I need to find film for my Dad'* old Polaroids. Maybe see if I can talk him inot letting me have them. They're just gathering dust in a cabinet, haven't seen daylight in years.
