comment:	Bought this lens recently from another Dyxum member, not expecting much. When I first saw it, it was love at first sight. The previous owner really looked well after this lens, it even has the factory plastic sheets over the lettering. This lens is brand new. And what amazing sharpness, and accuracy. couple all that with Minolta colours, and you have the perfect lens. If you could ever get your hands on one of these, grab it with both hands, and don't let go!!
