"But the Konica Minolta brand will disappear, ending a legacy that started when a predecessor of Konica introduced its first camera in 1903. The first Minolta brand camera came in 1933, followed by Konica in 1948."
Looks like Sony will be taking over K/M's SLR business. I get the impression that the non SLR business is finished. It's sad when companies with long histories like Minolta and Konica have to leave the business. I still have an old Minolta XG-7 which I used in the 80's. It's a tough world out there.
