Specialist Note "The 300si is often underestimated, but it’s actually one of the most user-friendly SLRs ever made. It was designed to give users the quality of a professional SLR with the ease of a point-and-shoot. The 'P' mode is exceptionally reliable, making it a fantastic choice for street photography where you need to react quickly. It’s light enough to carry all day and, because it uses the A-mount system, you can pair it with some truly legendary Minolta glass for professional-grade results on film."
