It looks like the Minolta A mount and photographic DNA has finally reached the end of the road.

Actually that is not entirelly true. The e and ef mounts use Minolta DNA.

Sony E mount , quite possibly .

Canon EF mount ? How ?

Everyone knows that Canon always copied Minolta's best ideas and secretly, deep down always wanted to be as good as a Minolta!

Well , that's true enough .

It's just a shame Minolta borrowed one of Canon's jelly moulds to make the 9/7xi cameras !
