I WAS CLEANING IN THE CLOSET AND DECIDED THIS HAS GOT TO GO. I AM NOT A CAMERA BUFF SO I REALLY DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT IT. I HAVE TAKEN PICTURES WITH IT BUT IT HAS BEEN SEVERAL YEARS. LOOKING THRU THE VIEW FINDER WINDOW THERE ARE A COUPLE OF BLACK STREAKS IN IT AND WAS THAT WAY WHEN I BOUGHT IT SEVERAL YEARS AGO, BUT IT DOES NOT AFFECT THE FUNCTION OF THE CAMERA.

I WISH I WAS BETTER VERSED ON IT BUT I SIMPLY AM NOT A PHOTOGRAPHER.

INCLUDES THE FOLLOWING

1. MINOLTA XE-5 WITH NECK STRAP AND MANUAL
2. VIVATAR FLASH 1900
3. 75 TO 200 MM ZOOM LENS
4. 50 MM LENS ATTACHED TO CAMERA

$ 100.00 AND I'LL PAY TO SHIP, LOWER 48 ONLY.

That's actually not a bad price considering the lenses included. The camera will last forever as long as the light seals on the back are in good shape, and they most likely are. The flash is good, though not 'top end' it is very functional.

I have a similar camera that I bought with just the prime lens (the 50mm) about four years ago for almost that much. The additional lens and flash would add to the value. A lot of people have gone or are going digital, but film is still very much alive! The black flecks are not uncommon on the viewfinder itself - doen't harm the images at all, because it's not on the lens. This camera does have a self timer, so you can get into the photo too. I have three similar cameras, otherwise, I would get this.

I don't know bcoop at all, just saw the ad and wanted to put some info out there in case anyone doesn't know what they are looking at.
 
Camera still available for sale or trade.
