My first 35mm cameras were Minoltas (which I think morphed into the Sony line). I hated to see them go out of business. I wish my Nikon digital SLR was as easy to work as that old Minolta XG-1.
I’ve never owned an Olympus, but I hate to see competition disappear, it keeps everyone on their toes.
Can understand that... I still have my Minolta XD-11... ;-)
