Today we'll be looking at these two 2nd Generation AF cameras from Minolta. Even after the success of the original Minolta 7000, the camera maker still had a few tricks up its sleeve. The 7000i was released in 1988 and boasted the new-at-the-time Predictive Autofocus, as well as a slightly gimmicky feature called Creative Expansion Cards. But one of them proves to be no gimmick, IMO. The higher-spec'd 8000i, released in 1990, had everything the 7000i had while adding some additional pro-level features.Check out the episode for a deep dive into what made these cameras great.
The autofocus test I refer to in this episode is found in my review of the original 7000. Test begins at the 8:10 mark.
