Four months ago it would have been my Minolta 600si.

Now it is, without question, my Minolta 7.

I will never buy another film camera (unless I have to replace the 7 with another 7)

You took the words out of my mouth. I still like the size and shape of the grip of the 600si a bit better than the 7 though.

Unlike you, I *would* buy another camera - not to replace the 7, but just because I can't help myself when I see a bargain - and besides, film cameras need to feel loved...
