    1984 (model 2562-600) A-Mount 50mm 1.45.0/5

    1984 (model 2562-600) A-Mount 50mm 1.4 Purchased in Mint condition. Plastic but sturdy build. Autofocus hunts in lowlight. Will plan to use in manual focus but serviceable in auto even though I would not recommend for a professional studio shoot. Nice hobby/pet project lens. Lightweight. Super sharp center mass at f1.4. Amazing colors and bokeh. Depth assist focus is a little unreliable with this lens. Continuous dmf is not an option at all. But if you’re like me and don’t care about that tech stuff this is an AMAZING lens especially for the price. Gives almost a film quality aesthetic. Definitely worth the purchase.

    Execellant lens5.0/5

    Execellant lens Completes the span of lenses I need for what I do. The 28mm, 50mm fast, 50mm Macro & the 100-200mm zoom fills out camera bag without emptying the bank account. Totally compatible with my Sony A series digital body, the Minolta AF lenses all perform as expected. This f1.4 gave me the fast "normal" lens for most general use.
