Minolta SR-7
The Minolta SR-7 is a 35mm single-lens reflex film camera introduced in the early 1960s as part of Minolta's SR series. It was positioned as an enthusiast SLR and is recognised as the first 35mm SLR with a built-in CdS exposure meter.
At UK auction in 2026, hammer prices for the SR-7 sit at the lower end of the vintage SLR market, with the only verified recent sale fetching £38 in May 2025. With just one data point in our sales history, the figure is best read as an indication that working examples currently sell for well under £50 at saleroom level rather than a firm market value or guide to what the camera is worth today.
