It is the last standard kit primes that Minolta made for cameras with an SR mount, and it is very lightweight at less than 6 ounces. Compared to the older models, this manual Minolta is made with the modern materials of the time, including multicoated elements. Rely on the outstanding minimum aperture to capture large, colorful portrait photos.As the third and most advanced in this series of lenses, the Minolta MD 50-millimter was released in 1981. It takes a 49-millimeter thread filter size to safeguard the glass from mechanical damage, dust, and scratches. Capture close and detailed items or faraway objects with the exquisite magnification ratio of the lens. Due to its 18-inch focusing distance, this lens delivers clear and beautiful images from different distances. With half a dozen elements and five groups of lenses, aberrations in photos are minimized. They're suitable for photographers who are in search of simplicity and elegance. Delivering remarkable optical performance and spectacular photo quality, Konica Minolta MD 50-millimeter f/1.7 MF AF lenses are both compact and beautiful.The only bad thing I have to say about this lens is that it doesn't have a zoom, lol, which it isn't supposed to otherwise it wouldn't be a Prime lens!Įxcellent Quality, I managed to get a used one so got myself a bargain at £15, think you can still get them for less than £50 which is still crazy for the quality.Ī well built all round brilliant lens, perfect for beginners.Īs i'm not a professional I can't say its perfect for professional photographers, but with the quality of the photo's I've managed to achieve I can't see why professionals wouldn't use it too. It has distance markings on which is great for shooting from the hip (if you need to).ĭepth of field range is awesome, you can achieve some amazing foreground and background blur. This lens has a 49mm filter thread for all your filter needs (its cheap enough to buy step up rings), it has an aperture ring and a focus ring. Stick the your camera on manual and away you go. I'm currently using it on a D3100 with MD to Nikon Adapter. My satisfaction could only be improved if i'd got a brand new one!
