i got my minolta x-370 not long ago and it came with a 50mm md prime lens but i'm not sure what the mount is so that i can get more lenses. i'v3e tried searching for them, ebay gave me the most responses, but i dont want to buy something just to find out it isnt compatibile. is there some kind of guide online as to what mount i have and lenses available? any help would be greatly appreciated.

Every Minolta MC/MD mount lens will work just fine. The designation "MC" was for Meter Coupled; the "MD" designation was for lenses that were compatible with the Program Mode (P) of the Minolta X-700.
2 lenses I use and recommend are the MD 35-70mm f3.5 and 70-210mm f4 constant aperture lenses. I use them on my SRT-202, XG-9, XE-7 and X-700.
You can find all the lenses you want on ebay as well as craigslist.

You answered your own question. You have an MD mount camera. Its the standard for the older minolta cameras. I have a Minolta with the same mount myself. You can find tons of replacements on craigslist in your area probably. Otherwise Adorama.com is a great site for used photography gear :)
