Thanks to both of you.
I really liked, no ~ loved my Minolta 7000 Camera and attachments.
I think I've got 4 lenses for it (I haven't handled it in quite a few years), and they're all made for that series of Auto Focus Cameras.
I believe I can still get both the programmable back and the camera body serviced by a professional.
It's one of the older series of camera's that they will service.
I wanted the 9000 body, but my brother talked me out of it and to the 7000.

Film bodies are so cheap now that it would be far cheaper to replace them with much newer ones than to repair them.

Both the 7000 and 9000 had to have their lcd screens replaced after a few years. My repairman used to charge only $20 for it including the parts but he has long since retired and I am sure the parts are no longer available.
