ePhotozine Vintage Review: Minolta AF 28mm F/2

• 2 years ago

Now that Sony has a pretty complete lineup of lenses adapting lenses to E-mount seems to have slowed a little, but it is good to know that there are 30+ years-old lenses on the market that can fully resolve even the highest of high-resolution cameras today. For fans of characters that do not like to give up resolution, the Minolta AF 28mm F/2 seems like a great choice based on ePhotozine vintage lens review which you can read here or check out the pros/cons below:
