It has a full set of papers for the USA market, Additionally, it has two manuals in Franch language: XD-7 manual, All serials of box/papers/lens/camera are matching, I can’t be sure for 100%, but it seems to me that this box-set is full.
The scale shown depends on the position of the mode-switch next to the shutter speed dial.
The finder window may be closed by flipping a small lever next to it, preventing stray light entering the exposure meter in automatic mode using a remote release.

Along the right side is a vertical column of eleven red LEDs next to a scale of either 11 f-numbers, from 1.4 through 32 in S-mode, or 11 shutter speeds, from 1 through 1000 in A- and M-mode. This group is open to people who shoot with the XD11, the XD7 (European designation of the XD11), the XD5, the XD or the XDS.
Well when you have one, you have to have two.The XD-5 is to the SRT 101 what the P30T is to the K1000, and now I have a nice two-body Minolta kit.

The camera does not, however, accept the Motor Winder MD-1, which provides up to 3.5 frames per second, a vertical shutter release button, and a noticeable improvement in ergonomics and handling to the XG and X series of camera. The release button is located within the shutter speed dial; it accepts a standard screw-in cable release as well as an electric remote release switch. @ accady/sybersitizen/Xavier - i have the MD Tele 70-210mm f4 and it really is a great lens given that it's a zoom. In fact, this function is always active, checking the exposure immediately before the shutter is fired, by MEASURING the TTL light intensity AFTER the lens aperture is set automatically.
