I love minolta lens4.0/5

I love minolta lens I like minolta and sony dslr, i use sony dslr a700 and have minolta lens more it. If you like purple outlines, you'll love this lens! Even down to f8, this lens in not good zoomed all the way out. It does get considerably better by f11 or so. All that said, it is still a good lens for the $. It is sharp even at a pretty wide aperture. I like that it feels and looks like a 'real' lens! Be careful of the CA and remember, a lot of that can be taken care of PP.
