Minolta made two attempts to offer SLR cameras for the 110 pocket film format. One was the unconventional camera pictured on the right, the Minolta 110 Zoom SLR, which had a built-in 1:4.5/25-50mm zoom lens. The aperture selector was not part of the lens. It was placed around the exposure-meter-eye instead. The meter controlled just the shutter speed. A hot shoe for a flash was an top of the camera.
The other "pocket SLR" was the Minolta 110 Zoom SLR MARK II which appeared more as a shrunken conventional SLR. It offered a 1:3,5/25-67mm macro zoom lens, rated as one of the top-performing lenses for 110 format by author William White[1].
