| ownership: | I own this lens |
| compared to: | Sony 16-105mm f3.5-5.6 Sony CZ 16-80mm f3.5-4.5 Minolta AF 28-80mm F4-5.6 |
| price paid: | £30 s/h |
| positive: | Sharp, lovely colour, solid build, virtually no colour fringing even with high contrast images. |
| negative: | Very long minimum focus distance for the length. |
| comment: | Oh, this one is great (or it can be: given their age, even the very high build quality can't save some copies from problems like fungus) and for the price you can get it for now, it's an absolute bargain. The range would be better on full-frame than APS-C, but I will still happily spend days wandering around town with this on the camera and it's only the way that the Sony's go much shorter that it doesn't get taken on 'one or two lenses' trips. |
