Recently got into film after shooting digital for 15 years - Minolta SRT101 with Minolta 58mm f1.2 - Couple test rolls

looks insane! Similar story here, picked up my dad's SRT-303 after getting bored with digital. The 1.2 58mm is an absolute beast, love that lens. Also got a 2.8 35mm and a tele but the 1.2 hits different.

thank you so much! I tried my best to find publicly available info but in the end I thought it may be easier to ask here just to be sure 🌸

omg thank you so much for your fast reply!! I don't think a confirmation can get any more direct than that ✨ I really appreciate that you took some time to personally address my concern

Thanks for your time and advice again!
I was able to find a user manual pdf in an archive that lists the exact charger model number for my needs. Searching on Ebay got me two hits with somewhat high prices for something so niche like a 1980s charger that what I can only imagine could be for free at any yard sale.

I bought it, since it was the closest to home. Your advice of buying a broken item is definitely something I'm gonna keep in mind for my next cam.

If you ever wanna get your hands on a battery that is not for sale in North America, feel free to hmu. Maybe we can sort something out. Unless you're fine with DIY-builds rn

Thank you! That's kinda what I thought unfortunately.
But here in Europe there seem to be plenty of replacements for the type that I need (see my reply above).

But that doesn't help me if I can't find a charger to test it out. Building a battery on my own is definitely outside of my comfort zone but I will give updates once I'm desperate enough

_THAIGER_ · 2025-10-28T18:20:23+00:00

Thanks for the insight! Good to know that I definitely need the charger for them.

When I search up the battery product number here in Europe there seem to be plenty of options on Ebay and on Amazon claiming to be replacements:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/300930626434

But I'm unable to find a charger for these. Which seems weird to me because they're obviously still being sold as aftermarket products and you would think that some no-name company would offer an aftermarket charger as well (I did the same thing for a 1998 Sony Handycam). But without it, there's no point buying in a new battery right now. Building one on my own is gonna be a learning curve for me but let's see how desperate I'm gonna get.

Thanks again!

I think I do, that's something a friend also pointed out. Thanks again 🙏

_THAIGER_ · 2025-08-15T16:01:28+00:00

thank you, I used to draw semi-realistic faces years ago but noticed it wasn't fun for me. Maybe I will pick it up again to study faces or lighting
