The '''Minolta Hi-Matic G''' is a compact [[viewfinder camera]]. Like the other Hi-Matics it has automatic exposure. And like other 1970s Hi-Matics it has the [[CdS]] window inside the [[filter ring]] and a [[hot shoe]] for the flash. With this camera [[Minolta]] overcame the "Electro Control" system which needed two batteries. Its CdS controlled exposure program sets speed/aperture combinations from 1/30 sec./f2.8 to 1/650 sec / f14 . The focusing ring has four distance [[zone focusing|zone symbols]]. F-Stop and shutter speed are shown in the viewfinder. | The '''Minolta Hi-Matic G''' is a compact [[viewfinder camera]]. Like the other Hi-Matics it has automatic exposure.
