Talk:Auto Press Minolta

Hello All, Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Igor and I enjoy collecting vintage photo gear. If it has a connection to making an image, I'm interested. Not long ago I found a Press Minolta kit on on that unmentionable venue, and was the lucky winner. Never handled one, and was surprised at how well made these are. Some of the leather covering is missing, however, the remainder of the camera looks to have seen very little use. This one came with three plate holders, film pack holder, original ground glass back and the original flash that attaches to the camera. This may have been the first camera with a hot shoe attachment. Can someone point me to the type of batteries that would make this beauty work? Will be very grateful. Igor.
