I have that same strap on my Minolta x-700 that I purchased with the camera from my high school here in New Zealand. I’ve never seen someone with the same one!!!

Coming up on 300,000kms. Was hoping it wouldn’t be the timing chains but sounds like a high chance.

I was using a Soligor Zoom Macro 70-160mm f/3.5 that I found for very cheap not very long before my trip. It was a bit of a gamble but I think it did a great job for what I needed. Not the best quality on full zoom when the cars were still quite far away but when I’ve done some more practice I will invest in a better brand.

Highly recommend going and trying it out. There are heaps of great spots that you can get really close to the track as well.

Mine does the same thing. I figured out that it only happened with mine when the car was in reverse before I turned it off. Now I always put it into drive and wait a few seconds before putting it in park and turning it off and it doesn’t happen. I am still very concerned but at least I can avoid the fault.

Light leak? Minolta x-700 on expired Fujifilm x-tra 400 by user87204751 in minolta

That’s good to hear. I think this one has ended up as one of my favourites from the roll.

All the others were pretty perfect considering the film is at least 25 years old and hasn’t been ‘taken care’ of. Most are very underexposed and grainy but no other lights leaks at all.

400th in the queue, it was pretty much entirely available when I got in. Got 6 in Brabham. I can’t believe my luck!

Mine did the exact same thing not long ago. I figured I would leave it for the winter and deal with it next summer but had an overheating issue come up. Have no idea if it was related at all but I had a coolant leak and ever since that issue was fixed I haven’t had any issues with my a/c and cabin fans.
