| comment: | I got a good deal on this one, and the seller didn't even know it was the circular aperture RS, nor could I be sure before I bid...bonus. I liked this one's photos so much that I went out and bought a new lens hood from Sony ($35 bux!) and some chunky 72mm filters for it...but per usual I prefer to "go commando" most of the time! I love the huge Minolta Branded lens cap, hehe ; ) I guess this lens spends the most time on my camera these days (I own 25 different Minotla compatable lenses) because I can count on it to shoot fast, no MFD issues, and it's REALLY sharp....really. My subject matter at the moment is a quick little guy who can change his expression 5 times a second! Because of that I should probably sell my 24 and 28 but it's hard to do at these prices... -Shootist |
