Minolta Program Back Super 90 - A Mode

This is my next challenge (after getting some film through some AF cameras to test automating the transfer of EXIF-style data to negative scans).

 

This replacement door for the Minolta 9000 brings a whole new level of control and exposure measurement to the camera. I think you can program how the automated exposure algorithms work, set multi-exposure sequences in steps as small as 1/4 EV, imprint exposure data on the negative, operate an intervalometer, and calculate an exposure from up to 8 different readings.

 

The control interface is opaque and fiddly to use, and the manual is a nightmare (not least because it is a slightly blurred photographic copy of the original).
