1/12000 of a Second. Minolta's Final Professional Film SLR.

Sold as the Dynax 9 in Europe, the Maxxum 9 in North America and the α-9 in Japan, this was Minolta's last professional film body, and it was built to prove a point. Released in 1998, it has one of the fastest shutters ever fitted to a film SLR, a carbon-fiber-reinforced unit reaching 1/12000 of a second, with flash sync at 1/300. The chassis is cast metal clad in stainless steel panels, the viewfinder shows 100 percent of the frame, and the drive fires at 5.5 frames per second. Its dense, logical control layout was so well thought out that it shaped Minolta and Sony cameras for years afterward. Today the Dynax 9 is a cult favorite among those who know, and a superb way to use the huge range of Minolta AF lenses. This example comes with a Minolta AF 50mm f/1.7. In Very Good condition, it shows light signs of use. For the photographer who wants a rugged professional film camera with a fast lens, or the collector who knows exactly what the 9 represents.
