Minolta SRT-102 conversion

[riffeym]

<p>I did some work on my Minolta SRT-102 recently. I decided to convert the camera to use silver oxide 1.5v batteries using the instructions found on Dick Sullivan's old site.<br /><br />These are some test shots to see if the meter was set properly. I used my MC Rokkor-X PF f1.7 50mm with a Vivitar 2x auto-converter and expired Fujicolor Super HQ 200 ASA film (02/2007) home developed and scanned. I think I'm getting close -<br>

<p>Looks fine. Congrats on adapting a classic to a modern energy source. I'd be tempted to do that with my SRT's, but it would take a while as I have seven of them. Thanks for posting.</p>

<p>Nice shots and exposure looks spot on to me. Maybe try some slide film next ;-)</p>

<p>Thanks Mike and Frank! It didn't take me long to get the conversion done but, I didn't have to do 7...<strong>:o</strong></p>

<p>Frank, now you've got me thinking.....which can be dangerous!</p>
