In 1977 the Minolta XD SLR series did combine for the first time the most important automatic exposure modes in one SLR camera body, the aperture priority mode and the shutter priority mode. This versatility was supported by mode dependent informations visible through the camera's very bright and good viewfinder. A new series of Rokkor lenses had been offered by Minolta for this exciting new pioneer product.

Several versions had been produced:

  • the XD-11/XD-7, which had all the features,
  • the XD-5 with less information offered through the viewfinder,
  • the XD-s with additional diopter adjustment
