compared to: | Minolta 100 Macro Minolta 100 300 Xi |
price paid: | £599 new |
positive: | Range Close focus distance Build quality SSM (near silent) |
negative: | Length Lack of cpl adjust window |
comment: | Another fantastic lens paired with my A77 and KM 5d it's difficult to fault, less sharp wide open and long with hood on and the lack of a window on the hood to adjust Cpl is a minor annoyance. As an aerospace engineer I have no concerns about the sensible use of composite materials to save weight. Well deserving of the G title. Have yet to test on my Dynax 7 film camera. |
