That's the biggest drawback. But it does have a PC socket and I have
an AF 240 :-)
The flash shoe is the one thing Minolta got right 22 years ago and no
other maker else has clued in on. A flash shoe with no exposed

It'll also use regular manual flashes, so maybe Minolta didn't put it
on any of their SLRs that I own.
