david_mount Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 Bought this after my Dad gave me his lovely as-new X-300 kit. But although it says 'for Minolta MD' on the box, no way will it mount in the camera body. I've just bought an X-370 backup body, had hoped that might accept the Toyo, but nope. Other MD lenses click in nice and solid, this one just won't. Anyone know what gives? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fmueller Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 If it's for Minolta MD it will definetely fit your camera, if it doesn't fit your camera, it's not for Minolta MD, regardless what's written on the box! You should be able to return it. If you can post a picture of the mount on the lens, we might be able to tell you what camera it woudl fit - not that that's likely to be of much help to you.

david_mount Posted May 20, 2004 Author Share Posted May 20, 2004 Much more careful inspection reveals that it is indeed a Minolta mount - with two of the locking tabs broken clean off, and fungus[?] on the inner element. Damn Eb*y. It looks brand new, that's what put me off the track. Sorry to waste your time. Maybe I can use the case screws to repair another Eb*y 'bargain'...
