Minolta Hi-Matic F Classic Rangefinder

Minolta Hi-Matic F

One of the classics of the rangefinder era in very clean condition with excellent leather case.

These little cameras give surprisingly good results and have a built-in light meter coupled to a Seiko ESF electronic shutter for very accurate exposures even in very low light. Almost silent operation is an advantage for candid shots.

The Minolta Hi-matic F is an extremely light, compact, easier-handling camera that features a highly accurate electronic shutter, with speeds from 1/724 to 4 full seconds, and a coupled, superimposed-image rangefinder. The CdS EE system provides perfect automatic exposure in conditions where flash is not need­ed. Its flashmatic system switches on automatically when flash is attached and couples aperture to focus for accurate exposure adjustment throughout the flash range. Convenient signals visible in bright-frame viewfinder tell you when there is enough light for normal hand-held auto exposure without flash, warn you when to use a tripod or flash, and confirm when camera is switched over to flashmatic mode."
