Enough with these overly dramatic camera rollouts.

Spit and the t-shirt you're wearing. :-)

Minolta was certainly not first with matrix metering. The Nikon FA is famous for being first. I remember the reviews in Modern Photography and Popular Photography when it came out. The magazines...

There won't be another Photokina.

I have more than a few reels since that's what I filmed with in the 70's. You could have avoided that through greater care. A pity your few reels have suffered like that.
