ownership: | I own this lens |
compared to: | - Minolta AF 35-70 f4 - SAL-2875 f2.8 - SAL-50 f1.8 |
price paid: | 30 EUR |
positive: | - Minolta colors - Minolta bokeh - quite sharp on fullframe |
negative: | - sharpness average on APS-C - plastic mount - plastic body - range |
comment: | I'm going nuts! This little plastic throw-away is as sharp as the razors edge on my fullframe Alpha 850 but just average on APS-C (Alpha 350). Everything's plastic here and it looks really Mikey-Mouse-like on a fullframe camera but hey, man! it does the job! So if you have the chance to get one in good condition - do so! |
