Is this Camera compatable with Minolta X-700 lenses? Thanks!

I have a minolta X-700 and want to get a digital SLR and would love it if I could use my lenses on this camera as well.

Since Sony took over Minolta's camera business and has the same lens mount, I'd say the chances are very good. Worst case, you can use it solely on manual. I think it's worth taking a long look. Take your lens down to a brick and mortar and ask the salesman if you can check it out.

Short Answer: No.

The Minolta X-700 is a manual focus camera. When Minolta introduced the AF model in '85, it also changed the lens mount. All Minolta AF lenses should function properly on the new Sony bodies as well as most 3rd Party Minolta A-mount AF lens (Sigma, Tamron, Tokina etc .Some Sigma lens are known not to function properly)

There are adapters available that allow MC/MD mount lens can be fitted on the Sony bodies, but all functions will be manual.

You will need to update your lens collection in order to take full advantage of the new DSLR. Since you're in that position, you can now broaden your search to include other manufactures ( Not that the Sony or Minolta DSLR are bad in any way, they are very good, I own 2 of them, the KM 7D and the Sony a700).

Try them out in person, hold them in your hands. Choose the one that had the features your require as well as the one that feels the most comfortable.

Luc Landry has good information. I just wanted to add that their are MC/MD lens adaptors available now that will even turn the "in focus" light on in the screen (know of focus confirmation). But as stated james is wrong and why would you come here to be told to go to a BM, who even goes to those anymore and when are the people their useful?
