The Minolta V2 was a rangefinder camera, launched in 1958. It was an all mechanical camera, the first offering exposure times downto 1/2000 seconds with a leaf shutter. This had been made possible with Minolta's strategy of enabling the higher shutter speeds with limited aperture variety. In the later cameras with exposure automation Minolta sometimes did combine every possible shutter speed with just a variety of the possible aperture values. Unlike other cameras of its time the V2's aperture blades and shutter blades were identical.
