The Minolta XM Motor is basically a Minolta XM with added grip and film advance motor. The original XM's self-timer is omitted. The motor speed can be set for 1, 2, or 3 frames per second. In high-speed mode up to 4 exposures per second are possible. A 10m film magazine is attachable (for 250 exposures). The accessories for the XM are applicable. A new viewfinder module became available for both cameras. The new pentaprism finder "S" has a semiconductor sensor which measures EV -2 to 17 and shows speeds from 8s to 1/2000s with LEDs.
In the USA it was sold as the The Minolta XK Motor
