Maxxum Sony Alpha

Minolta/Sony Lens Question?
I have a Minolta Maxxum 5 as well as a Sony Alpha 100. Their lenses are interchangeable. I have the opportunity to buy lenses from a Maxxum 7000 which I know is much older. Is the lens mount still the same? Or was that before Minolta switched to their latest mount? I'd just hate to buy lenses that I won't be able to use on my Sony.
Minolta introduced the A-mount when they released the Maxxum 7000 in 1985. Any A-mount lens made for the Maxxum will mount to your Sony. Minolta also offered an adapter to mount the older manual focus MC/MD mount lenses on the Maxxum.
Sony is expected to release a full-frame (24mm X 36mm) sensor camera in late 2008 or early 2009. Since the Maxxum lenses were designed for the 35mm format (24X36) they will be just fine on the full-frame camera.
