Excellent value I bought this lens instead of Sony 24-70 F4 OSS. As I already have an Sony LAE 4 adapter, this lens was expected to serve the same purpose (except optical stabilization). After using the lens in my Sony A7R, i found the image to be sharp in focus and having the legendary Minolta colors. I am really happy.
I love this Lens I got this because it was a way cheaper alternative then the Canon or Rokinon or anything of that caliber I have a 50 millimeter 1.2 in the same brand and fell in love with the image that it produces I've already dropped it a couple of times and it's held up well it does feel plasticy but as far as the image quality and sharpness it's a very underrated lens
A great lens that covers most of your photo needs and provides quality too. This lens is so good I bought 2 so I could be absolutely sure of getting one !! In use, it has been rated by a reviewer of Sony A99 as "surprisingly sharp". Made by Minolta before they stopped camera development, it will work on all current Sony DSLRs and SLTs, as well as Minolta DSLRs and AF film cameras. Minolta lenseas are renowned for their beautiful colour reproduction. Great walkabout lens - you may never need another lens !
