comment: | I have heard all about this lengendary lens the Beercan since i got my KM 5d and i wasn't sure what made it so good. I was selling something at a ebay retail store and someone had brought in an old box labeled camera's. So i opened it up and it was filled with minolta lens i spotted a 70-210 f4 box and i opened it up! It was brand new orignal manual in wrapper. I was in aww! The build quality was amazing and it felt right. We walked outside and i told him 150 and he okayed it. Great lens quick af. Sharp wide open and must have lens. Price has shot up lately due to sony but keep an eye out for a cheap one. |
