Where does one buy mount adapters for obsolete cameras?

I own a Minolta X370 and it takes MD/MC lenses, ive found there just isnt very many lenses that fit the camera, and even fewer mount adapters for it.

ive only found 1(one) lens mount adapter on amazon for a X370 body. Vast majority of the result on google are for Nikon/etc users who want to use vintage minolta lenses. im beginning to think they simply dont make them due to lack of demand.

What type of lenses do you want to adapt?

There are many excellent lenses for minolta. I would look for another camera if I wanted to use lenses from other brands.

>not very many lenses
what? There are tons
>fewer mount adapters
was this really a thing? Wouldn't the flange distance be extremely similar to other cameras of the time? I'm assuming you ARE talking about adapting lenses to put ON the X370.

This is how I read the OP too.

OP, I don’t think you’ll have any luck adapting lenses from other systems onto your camera, but there’s a shitload of old minolta glass out there. The lenses are often referred as being MC or MD, the mount is actually called SR.

I swear when I got my srt-100 the manual advertised an m-mount adapter but I no longer have those that things, the internet yields nothing about it.
