Just bought a NEW Minolta 5D

I never had a chance to use a Minolta digital camera. My friend used to have one and he loved it. For a while now I've been stalking this forum, attracted to the color that these old cameras produce and resisting the urge to buy one. They seem to go for higher prices on the used market than equivalent vintage models.

But tonight I found a new, never used 5D for a total of $150 and I snagged it. It's hard for me to believe that it's never been used, but we will see. It's an OK price regardless. I'll have it in my hands by end of next week.

I do have a question, since I use a Mac. Does the old Minolta raw converter still run on modern Mac systems? Any other suggestions for converting the files?
