Quartz Data Back QD-9
Focusing Screen 9
Data Memory Back DM-9
Vertical Control Grip VC-9
Use the Quartz Data Back QD-9 to record the
time or date in the lower right-hand corner of
each frame. Designed specifically for the Maxxum / Dynax 9,
the Data Memory Back DM-9 can store
exposure data for up to 400 rolls of 36
exposure film on a 2MB SmartMedia card. The
saved data can be displayed in the data panel
or on your home computer.
Four new focusing screens have been introduced for exclusive use with the
Maxxum / Dynax 9. The G (standard), L, and S screens use Minolta’s new spherical
acute matte surface, designed to produce less image shading in the center of the
focusing screen.
Designed for users of large aperture lenses, the M and ML type screens use the
super spherical acute matte surface for greater light dispersion and sharper focus
control.
• The edges of the viewfinder may appear dark when some telephoto lenses are used with
the type G, S, and L focusing screens. The final image will not be affected.
Another Maxxum / Dynax 9 exclusive, the
Vertical Control Grip VC-9 has duplicated basic
control surfaces (shutter-release button, control
dials, grip switch, etc.) for improved vertical
operation.
Multiple power source capability has also been
incorporated to extend the length of shooting
sessions in between battery changes. Type L Type G
Type M
Type S
The Data Memory Back DM-9 can also imprint
aperture/shutter speed data, frame count, film
ID, the date, or the time of exposure in between
frames.
