Minolta once made two attempts to offer SLR cameras for the 110 pocket film format. One looked more like a conventional SLR camera, the other was the camera in the image on the right side of this page, the Minolta 110 Zoom SLR, which had a builtin 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" had been the Minolta 110 Zoom SLR MARK II with 1:3,5/25-67mm zoom lens. According to the source http://www.subclub.org/shop/min110.htm it's rated to have been one of the best mini cameras ever.
