Another Chinese-made clone of the Minolta X-300. I have my doubts as to whether or not this is an official clone. The name plate where "Argus" is located has rounded-off corners to the left and the right of the name. Almost as if somebody had sanded off the original name and painted on Argus instead. Another doubt comes because I have never seen another camera like this anywhere on the internet. Update: A contact of mine found one of these for sale, and it was the whole camera kit - camera, box, manual, etc. I guess that proves it's a legitimate clone. Thanks, Xata!

This Argus DF-300 is another one of my Minolta X-300/X-370 clones. I can't find any reference to it anywhere on the internet. It's almost as if it doesn't exist, but this one copy.

One of my band’s CDs was playing and the song title showed up on the front of this auto stereo.
