New & Old Lenses for my Minolta X-370 - Photo.net
Jun 24, 2002 · The Minolta AF mount is different from the old MC/MD mount and the new AF lenses don't fit the old MF cameras. I don't think there's an adapter but anyway it's not a worthwhile proposition because the manual focus action on AF lenses is often not very good, and you would even lose the wide-open metering on your X-370.

Apr 10, 2010 · PhotoNet Pro. 6.8k. Posted April 10, 2010. <p>I disagree. Some of my best glass is Minolta MC. I have a 58/1.4 that gives excellent bokeh and a 50/1.4 MC that's better than my 50/1.4 MD. The MC lenses are heavier because they're made of metal, which many people consider better than plastic. But the 50/1.7 MD and 45/2 MD are great, sharp, small ...

Mar 27, 2009 · <p>I had that problem with a Canon FT QL and also with a Minolta SRT 101. In both cases the winding mechanism needed some lubrication. I found the X-370 generally very pleasant to use. I purposely looked for the older MC lenses with the tab because the X-370 has no depth fo field preview feature. I later traded the X-370 for an X-700.</p>

Dec 11, 2005 · It's most likely that the solenoid in the electronic shutter died (I think this #1 cause of that for X300, X370 and X700 cameras). Check the eBay for pricing on X370 cameras and I think you will find out that it's cheaper to buy another camera than to have the shutter repaired. I believe the repair runs in the vicinity of $80.

Minolta X-370..Was it any good?? - Accessories - Photo.net
Jul 29, 2004 · The X-370 was Minoltas entry level body. It's a nice little SLR, but nothing special, and not very expensive new or particularly sought after on the second hand market. The 35-70mm f/3.5-4.8 lens is pretty bad, really - or at least the one I had for a short time was appaling.
