Minolta SR-3

Out of stock
The Minolta SR-3 was introduced in 1960 as a refined version of the original SR-2. It is a fully manual 35mm SLR featuring the Minolta SR mount. The camera offers shutter speeds from 1 to 1/1000 second plus Bulb and is compatible with early Auto-Rokkor lenses. It lacks a built-in light meter, though a clip-on selenium meter was originally available, emphasizing a purist mechanical shooting experience.

What Is The Best Place To Sell My Minolta SR-3?

Get a free, no-obligation quote in under 60 seconds on our Sell page — we'll show you exactly what we'll pay before you commit to anything.

Where can I sell my Minolta SR-3?

You can sell your Minolta SR-3 directly to SDS. We give you an instant online quote, send you a free DPD or Royal Mail label to ship it in, and pay you by bank transfer once it's been inspected. No auctions, no buyer disputes, no waiting.

Is it worth selling my Minolta SR-3?

If you're not using your Minolta SR-3 regularly, yes — used camera gear depreciates over time, so the longer you wait, the less it's worth. Selling now means you turn idle kit into cash you can put toward your next body, lens or trip.

Where can I buy a used Minolta SR-3?

Right here. Every used Minolta SR-3 we sell is hand-checked by our team, graded honestly against our published conditions guide, and shipped fast from the UK. All listings show real photos of the actual item you'll receive.

Is a used Minolta SR-3 reliable?

Every Minolta SR-3 we sell is inspected, tested and graded before it goes on the site. It also comes with a 1-year SDS warranty (UK only, excluding items graded Faulty) and a 14-day return window if it isn't what you expected.

What condition will my Minolta SR-3 be graded?

We grade every item against five clearly-defined conditions: Like New, Excellent, Good, Well Used or Faulty. Cosmetic wear, functional issues and what's included are all taken into account. Full criteria are on our Conditions guide page.

How long does it take to get paid for my Minolta SR-3?

Once your Minolta SR-3 arrives and passes inspection (usually within 1–2 working days of receipt), payment is sent straight to your bank account. Most sellers are paid within 24-48 hours of posting their item.

Do you buy a faulty or broken Minolta SR-3?

Yes — we buy Minolta SR-3 units graded Faulty too, though the price will be lower. Be honest about any issues in your quote: it speeds up inspection and avoids revised offers later.

What accessories should I include with my Minolta SR-3?

Including the all of original manufactures accessories typically increases what we'll pay for your Minolta SR-3. If you are missing any of these no worries, just send what you can and we can adjust your quote once your device arrives.

Does my Minolta SR-3 purchase come with a warranty?

Yes — every Minolta SR-3 bought from SDS comes with a 1-year warranty (UK only) except items sold as Faulty. You also get a 14-day return window if you change your mind.
