What it is
{"overview":"The Minolta XE-7 is a 35mm film SLR introduced in the mid-1970s, sold as the XE in Europe and the XE-1 in the UK and developed jointly with Leitz during the cooperation that also produced the Leica R3. With just one data point, today's market price for the XE-7 cannot be reliably stated from the auction record alone, and prospective buyers should treat that figure as historical context rather than a guide to what the camera sells for now at hammer.","buying_guide":"Common points to inspect on any XE-series body include the electronics that drive the aperture-priority metering, the responsiveness of the vertical-travel metal focal-plane shutter, light-seal condition, and the smoothness of the wind lever, which is often singled out for its damping.

Questions
Is the Minolta XE-7 the same as the XE-1?
