The Minolta X-570 (X-500 in Europe and Asia) is a film single-lens reflex camera. It was introduced in 1983 as a lower cost alternative to the X-700, replacing the earlier XG-M in this role.[1] It used the same chassis as the rest of the Minolta X series and the standard Minolta SR lens mount.
The primary difference between the top-of-the-line X-700 and the X-570 is that the latter lacked the fully automatic Program exposure mode. However, the X-570 added an important feature that would be part of all subsequent X series cameras (but never added to the X-700), a match LED exposure meter. This system indicated the selected shutter speed with a blinking LED and the suggested shutter speed, based on the exposure value and the selected lens aperture, with a solid LED. Some consider the X-500 more of an enthusiast's camera than the X-700, since it offered no P mode and therefore required some photographic knowledge.[2] The X-570 also had an expanded ISO range of 12-3200 ISO, whereas the X-700 had a range of 25-1600 ISO.[1]
The X-570 was withdrawn from production in 1985 after approximately 350,000 were manufactured.[1]
