Thanks.

[edit] Merge

Should the Minolta and the Konica articles be merged with the Konica Minolta article? Konica's talk page can be accessed here for convenience. --Mayfare 23:46, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

In short, no; but see my much longer comment at Talk:Konica. -- Hoary 00:48, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

It's clear that the proposal to merge was overwhelmingly opposed. I've therefore removed the "Shall we merge?" templates from the articles. -- Hoary (talk) 23:23, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Autofocus SLR's Section question

Would whichever user put in the following JPEG:

Infrared negatives fogged by the frame counter of a Minolta Maxxum 4.

please explain same using clearer language? FYI, it's impossible for a 'frame counter' (which only counts film frames) to fog film! Now if you want to say that:

using a plastic camera body (versus a metal camera body) can fog infrared film

then please reword same.--MurderWatcher1 20:58, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The Autofocusing 500mm Mirror Lens

Another comment I'm adding, separate to the above that I made. Now if we could only get more images of these fine cameras, and will someone please, if possible, put in an image of a Minolta Maxxum SLR or DSLR with that fabulous autofocusing 500mm mirror lens? They were the only ones to produce this optic and Herbert Keppler of Popular Photography made a comment on this optic in that magazine. Sony now has this optic and I'm wondering why Canon and Nikon haven't responded.--MurderWatcher1 21:35, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
