just a quick, and i mean quick, photo of a minolta hi-matic 9.
i bought it at a flea market...rough and a bit dirty but the imagery is fine.
i wanted to post this for people who want to know what a hi-matic 9 looks like....point of reference if you will.
enjoy!

my first roll through a very used minolta hi-matic 9.
found it at a flea-market. it sounded mechanically correct and the optics were unknown but i bought it anyway.
i manually metered: sunny ..125 at 11 and so on. i placed a battery in the clean battery compartment and it works…kinda. tops out when exposed to sunlight and drops down to 8 when light is lowered
not too bad for a camera that was made in late 1960’s and not well-kept, but i have faith in minolta.
of course i used some tweaking, but still, the original isn’t bad
