Price Paid:
$0.00 Summary: Oh, my goodness, this is a horrible Lens.
I became a Minolta user back in the late 80's when the 7000 was the first autofocus SLR camera on the market. I still have that camera today ion addition to my other equipment.
Judging from my experience, I regarded Minolta as the equivalent in quality to Nikon at a better price. After my experience with this lens I have changed my mind. This is a horrible, poorly constructed lens with a tacky feel and awful rendition. It is the kind of lens that puts one right off the camera. after a previous unsatisfactory experience with a Minolta 24-105 zoom that failed to give equivalent results to my trusty old 35-105, I have to say that I will probably need to move to Tamron for my Minolta mount lenses or switch my whole system across to Nikon. Strengths: Relatively inexpensive when given away with a camera body Weaknesses: Tacky feel, rough movement, poor clarity and resolution, barely workable even at 50mm Similar Products Used: All Minoltas - 35-70, 35-105, 28-135, 70-210, 100-300, 75-300 on Maxxum 7000 and Xtsi bodies Customer Service: Actually, pretty good judging from my experience with other Minolta lenses.
