will lenses from a Minolta x700 work on a sony dslr? if so which ones?

No, the mounts are different and they will not even fit on the camera. However, any Minolta Maxxum series lens from 1985 and newer will fit and function properly on a Sony DSLR, including the auto focus and metering.

I'm looking for a camera which can make not just horizontal but vertical panoramic pictures. is sony alpha slt-a55v capable for this?

Two panorama sizes are available -- standard, or wide. Standard horizontal panoramas are limited to 15 megapixels, and vertical panoramas to 8.4 megapixels. In Wide mode, horizontal panoramas are 23 megapixels, and vertical panoramas are 12 megapixels.

Where do I get UV protection lens for this camera

Hi Suzette, if you are referring to lens filters, you may get them from your nearest authorized Sony dealer. You may also refer to this link for our list of available filters: https://www.sony.com/electronics/lenses/t/accessories/filters Thanks, -Mark

Is there any other way i can set my iso as my selection button (up, down,right,left) is not working

No there is no way to set ISO as a custom selection.
