    Minolta XL Sound 42

    Well, thanks everyone! I apologize for not posting in a while, but life took over. Now I brought the camera back out and I thought I'd look over my old posts to see if there was anything I needed to remember. The camera's working great, I just have to buy the film now. The manual zoom is...

    Minolta XL Sound 42

    I have not put any batteries in it, however, my uncle did and it apparently made the correct sounds when he pulled the trigger. Should I keep the mic completely seperate from the camera, or should I connect it to the AUX port? I assume seperate (since apparently the film is no longer sold...

    Minolta XL Sound 42

    YES! First, sorry for the dp. Second, I got the camera today! XD Picture to follow as soon as I remember my password on a img-hosting site...XD indietalk: This camera has two options on fps: 1 and 18. I don't plan on stop-motion anytime soon, so that dial will stay firmly on 18. XD ~Saloon218

    Minolta XL Sound 42

    Thanks! That is a ton more than I realized I needed to know, but I'm definitely helped a lot by this... Now... Is anybody here able to give me a Zensteve-like post about the camera? I can probably figure out I/O switches, but, for instance, whether I need a seperate mic or not. Much...

    Mac emulators on Windows? (final cut pro)

    Well... If you were given it...I'll help you willingly! If you bought it without checking specs to figure that out...sorry, but I will help you. An emulator that runs Mac OS 8 would not help you for software that runs on OSX. However, VMware Fusion, Parallels Desktop, or stuff like that...

    Minolta XL Sound 42

    I'm getting this from a friend/uncle in a few days, free since it's not really used by anyone but still works (also how I got into photography, through a Minolta lying around at a relative's house (well, not really lying around, in a bag, but still...:hmm:)). Wanted to know about where I can...
