Great osprey shots! I used to see some occasionally, on platforms in the shallow areas of the Albemarle Sound, when my parents lived on the North Carolina coast.
On a side note, I still have an old Minolta SRT-201 35mm camera, that I guess I have had since the 70’s. Still works fine. Minolta made quality stuff!
I would not bother trying to use old manual focus Minolta stuff. You can find excellent Minolta AF (autofocus) lenses used on eBay. Minolta AF lenses are every bit as good as Canon and Nikon. Some of the new lenses from Sony are great also, but rather expensive.
I have the Minolta SRT 101 that shot thousands of pictures
and never a problem.Used an Olympus half frame camera,70
pictures on a roll while in VN.
Never took pictures as good as Swampsniper tho.
