I got started in photography in 1985 with a Minolta X-700. I opted for the 
50mm f3.5 macro lens instead of the standard lens and the PX360 flash.  It 
was a great setup. I soon doubled the cameras for twin stereo.  I used 
Minolta manual camera equipment until about 2000.

Minolta made a nice array of macro equipment, in some respects better than 
Olympus.  This included a sophisticated bellows system and bellows lenses.

Regarding the "ultimate fang" this outfit is worth less than $50 today.  I 
have mint X-700 bodies (look like they were never used) and lenses in ebay 
right now. I don't think the mint body will sell for more than $20.  We will 
see.
