Minolta SRT-101

The Minolta SRT-101 is a 35mm single-lens reflex film camera introduced in 1966, built around a mechanical focal-plane shutter and the Minolta SR bayonet lens mount. It was positioned as an enthusiast SLR and was the first model in Minolta's SRT line to feature through-the-lens metering using the company's CLC (Contrast Light Compensator) system.

Hammer prices at recent UK auction have ranged from about £12 to £100, with a median around £44, so most bodies sell for value well below £100 today. Condition is the main driver: scruffy, untested examples land at the lower end of the range, while clean working bodies — often sold with a 50mm Rokkor lens — pull the saleroom result toward the top. Buyers researching what an SRT-101 is worth or what one sells for should treat these wholesale auction figures as a floor, since dealer retail prices typically sit higher.
