"Why did it take three tries to find an SLR that “worked?"

Most likely, batteries. My old Minolta SR-1 still "works," but the mercury batteries for it are no longer available. Substitutes affect settings for the light meter.

I know a place that can probably recalibrate your Minolta’s meter to the new batteries. (I have two SRT’s that were so modified) Freepmail me if interested.
