In common with other [[:Category: Disc film|disc cameras]], the [[Minolta]] had a flat, compact design, but a limited range of photographic features. The lens was [[fixed-focus]], although it had a [[Lens#Macro|macro mode]], and there were just two shutter speeds. The Disc-7 had one remarkable feature which stood it apart from other disc cameras. In the center of the front plate was a small convex mirror, which could be used by the photographer to compose a self-portrait. The tiltable, telescoping carrying strap was used as a focusing aid, as its length corresponded with the optimal focus distance of the macro lens - a similar focusing system was later used by [[Olympus]] for the [[Olympus XA4]] Macro. ==Specs== * Type: compact camera * Manufacturer: [[Minolta]] * Year of release: 1983 * Films: [[disc film]] with speed 200 [[ASA]] * Lens: 1:2.8/12.5mm * Shutter: speeds 1/100 and 1/200 sec. * Aperture: [[CdS|CdS-controlled]] * [[Self-timer]]: with control [[LED]] * Flash: guide number 9 * Weight: 200g * dimensions: 129.5×78×21mm * Power: lithium batteries which have to be replaced by the manufacturer {{Flickr_image |image_source= http://www.flickr.com/photos/captkodak/271901641/in/pool-camerapedia/ |image= http://static.flickr.com/92/271901641_3fa973d7e7_m.jpg |image_align= left |image_text= ac 301 Courrèges, by Capt Kodak }} The '''Minolta ac 301 Courrèges''' was designed in conjunction with French fashion house André Courrèges.[http://www.courreges.com/] It carried the Courrèges logo, with a cream-white front, a gold-coloured frame, and an attractive soft case. A similar exercise was carried out with the [[Minolta Disc-5]], which became the '''Minolta ac 101 Courrèges'''. ==Links== * [http://www.collection-appareils.fr/x/html/page_standard.php?id_appareil=11564 Minolta Disc-7] on [http://www.collection-appareils.fr/general/html/francais.php www.collection-appareils.fr] by Sylvain Halgand [[Category: Japanese disc film]] [[Category: Minolta|Disc-7]] [[Category: M]] [[Category: D|Disc-7]] [[Category: Disc film]]
