  • MD-System Mit Den Minolta Rokkor-Objektiven Minolta
    Meine Minolta Kleinbildausrüstung In den Siebzigerjahren war ich finanziell bereits so gefestigt, dass ich an die Anschaffung einer "ordentlichen" Kameraausrüstung denken konnte. Die Spiegelreflexkameras aus Japan hatten damals einen qualitativen Höhepunkt erreicht, die Zeit der Nachahmung deutscher Erzeugnisse war längst Geschichte. Olympus, Nikon, Canon, Sony und eben Minolta. Meine Wahl fiel nach Berück- sichtigung von Ratschlägen fachkundiger Freunde auf die Minolta XD mit dem MD- Bajonett und den hochwertigen Rokkor-Objektiven. Dies garantierte auch eine große Auswahl an eigenen und Fremdobjektiven, verbunden mit einer gewissen Langlebigkeit des Systems. Später wechselte ich für Reisen und Schnappschüsse wieder zu kleinern Sucherkameras und letztlich zu den noch handlicheren Digitalkameras. Das Minolta-System habe ich gut konserviert und zusammen mit den Kleinstbildkameras - siehe separate Dokumentation - als Sammlung betrachtet. Auf Photoflohmärkten stößt man heute auf Angebote zu besagtem Minolta-System, dazu passende Kameras wie die ältere SRT 101 und Objektive zu Preisen, für die man seinerzeit gerade einen passenden Filtersatz erhielt. Wenn man sich der Analogfotografie aus Nostalgiegründen stellen will, kann man also um einen Pappenstiel eine wunderbare Ausrüstung zusammenstellen. Ich möchte hier keine wissenschaftliche Abhandlung schreiben, dazu gibt es genug Fachliteratur. Andererseits gerät einfache fotografisches Wissen um Blende Brennweite, Belichtung bei den heutigen automatischen Kameras immer mehr in Vergessenheit und werden auch nur mehr auf Akademien gelehrt. Die Fachliteratur für Otto Normalverbraucher gibt es praktisch nicht mehr, er braucht sie auch nicht. Ein "Selfie" ist auch so drin. Für Freunde, die sich aus Nostalgie mit der Analogfotografie beschäftigen wollen, einen Leitfaden für Antikmärkte suchen, schlage ich als eine von vielen Möglichkeiten vor: Das Minolta SR/MC/ MD-System mit den Minolta Rokkor-Objektiven Minolta: Kazuo Tashima gründete am 11.
