Kalimar KX 7000

Kalimar KX 7000
This Kalimar KX 7000 is a fully-licensed clone of the Minolta X-300x/X-370n, but with one difference. While the upper body incorporates the rounded updated styling, the lower body keeps the styling of the Minolta X-300/X-370. That makes this a sort of Frankenstein camera which Minolta never actually made. I actually prefer how it feels in my hands better than the Minolta X-300s/X-370n version.

And the updated body styling of the Minolta X-300s and the Minolta X-370n. You can see the difference in the handgrip area between these and the Kalimar KX 7000:

The same Chinese company that made these later Minoltas and all the licensed copies also made a couple other versions that resembled this Kalimar KX 7000:
