| comment: | The lens is a bit heavy but it produces excellent results. Compared to the Sigma it is sharper at f2.8 from 28 to 50mm. At 70mm you should stop down to f4. The Sigma delivers sharper results above f5.6. Minolta colors are more neutral and the Minolta bokeh is better. Build is exceptional good - a true G lens. |
