Re: Still looking for a minolta

It wouldn't be the first time a cameras manufacturing has been outsourced or even just anothers companies camera rebadged. Look at a Leica CL vs a Minolta CLE... the smart money bought the CLE at half the price of the CL with its very expensive Leica badge fixed to it. Many Leica deciphels consider the CL the best electronic automated range finder film camera ever sold under a Leica badge.
