The trailblazing single-lens reflex camera with fully-fledged autofocus Registration No. Number 00290 Registration Date September 15, 2020 Registration Category Category 1 Name MINOLTA 7000 (Model, etc.) Hachioji-shi, Tokyo Location KONICA MINOLTA WITH YOU, Inc Owner KONICA MINOLTA WITH YOU, Inc (Custodian) Manufacturer MINOLTA CAMERA Co., Ltd. (now KONICA MINOLTA, INC.) (Company) Year Manufactured 1985 Year first appeared 1985 In the early 1980s, one feature of SLR cameras was the capability to switch between different lenses. A major obstacle in developing a system to enable autofocus while maintaining this feature were the existing lenses. The camera itself could be fitted with a focus detecting function, called focus aid, which indicated when the image was out of focus. However, this could not be made to work together with the lens mechanically. Reason For Autofocus could only be made to work with the limited range of lenses that had a focus Selection drive mechanism built in. In this camera, the entire system was completely redesigned with the autofocus function built into the body of the camera. The camera was fitted with a newly developed set of lenses that had a built-in interlocking system to connect them to the camera body, resulting in a near-perfect autofocus function. This innovative product is significant as it completely changed the course of subsequent 35mm SLR camera design, which has carried through to the digital SLR cameras of today. 1-A (Show an important aspect or stage of the development of science and technology.)

Department of Computer Science, June 2016. ADVISOR: John Rieffel As all forms of technology become more integrated into our daily lives, personal privacy has become a major concern. Everyday devices, such as mobile phones, have surveillance capabilities simply by having a digital camera as part of the device. And while privacy and secrecy seem to go hand in hand, it is not always the case that one does not care about privacy because they have nothing to hide.
