The Minolta Dynax 7000i is an autofocus 35mm SLR from the late 1980's/early 1990's. In its day it was a top end amateur camera, and even now produces quality results. Its main claims to fame are a top shutter speed of 1/4000s and a 3FPS motor drive. By today’s standards it is a bit heavy considering the flash is not built in. Also the autofocus is not as fast or as quiet as modern cameras. However the 7000i can be bought quite cheaply and in my opinion provides excellent value for money.
This picture was taken with a Polaroid SX-70 camera.
The one on the left has the Cosina 19-35mm F3.5-4.5 wideangle zoom, and the Minolta 2000i flash. The one on the right has the more common Minolta 35-105 F3.5-4.5 zoom and the Minolta 3200i zoom flash.
By todays standards, the Dynax 7000i might be a big heavy camera - however the next photo of Benjamin shows that even a 2 year old can use it:
You should be able to download the manual from the US Minolta web site.

Note than Minolta in the US have always referred to this camera as the Maxxum 7000i instead of the Dynax 7000i which is why both names are listed..
Also please note that Konica Minolta's website seems to get reorganised from time to time - so you may have to hunt around if the above instructions stop working.
