PHOENIX P-5000
PDF MANUAL
For information only: this is a Minolta mount camera. It is a basic
Auto camera using the license from Minolta to use their mount. It has
an AE (auto exposure) lock the older Minolta did not have. Phoenix is a
small company making flashes, lenses and now camera bodies. Most likely
for the "student" cameras requiring full manual operations, which this
can do.
