minolta X-1, XM, XK; It's not broken, supposed to do that

#minolta's first X-series camera has a bad reputation for a flaw in the design. But it was not a flaw, minolta did it intentionally. Most SLR's had what was called a quick return mirror, but some pro cameras (Lookin' at you Hasselblad) didn't have a quick return mirror. Instead, the mirror blacked out the viewfinder at the moment of exposure and the mirror did not return until the photographer reset the mirror by winding to the next exposure. minolta incorporated this feature so pro;s could still make a quick, on the fly exposure after the camera had been switched off. But it's the responsibility of the photographer to know the "nickel trick" to reset the mirror afterwards. #minolta# #XK# #XM# X-1# #Professional camera#
