minolta xg-m has an amazing viewfinder, bright, big. i think i never seen any like that. mamiya 1000dtl has a good one, but not that good. also, it has the led panel near the scale with the shutter values in the viewfinder, like mamiya z series, which is very convenient. and also shows the aperture value. the film advance lever is of an amazing quality. you just feel the quality while moving it, and holding camera in hands. #minoltat
