How to record the camera and lens settings?

Hi,

Going back to my previous post (no 36) I started looking for one of the Minolta cameras that take cards and eventually invested(?) over five pounds in a Minolta 5xi super and a 7000i and a data recording card. (I got some nice lenses too... )

Here's a picture to tell it all:-

As you can see the card is smaller than an SD card and what it records is shown on the front of the box.

I hope that 1/250th at f/5.6 on frame 23 in aperture priority mode is obvious. Then in the middle display frame 7 was adjusted by +1.5 stops and finally for frame 35 the 105mm f/4.5 lens was used.

That 99p on ebay was money well spent.

By the way,the 5xi is fiendishly complex and the 7000i is straight forward.

Regards, David

PS And the Contax Tix records the exposure as well and they will, sometimes, print it on the back of the photo as they should all the time but people forget how to set up the machine for APS these days...
