I have an X-700. Are the lenses interchangable with any of the Minolta SLR Digital Models?

Was this a stupid question, or do I need to give more information?

As of today, Minolta does not have any dSLR's. Perhaps later in the spring.

The X-700 uses the older MC/MD non-AF mount, which is subsequently replaced by the Maxxum line of AF lenses...

If and when Minolta will come out with a dSLR it will more likely use the newer AF mount which they still make the lenses for, and as a matter of fact, just release a couple of 'G' series lenses...

I didn't think to add that I also have a Maxxum 400si. Do you think they will be coming out with an SLR model that will accept its lenses?
