    Your section on the 28mm f/2.8 switches between images of the correct lens and a Nikon lens, and then at the end of the segment refers to it as an f/1.4 lens. 🥴

    Por lo que aquí veo... dudo que usted haya probado estas lentes y que las haya tenido alguna vez. Lo que hizo fue buscar en internet información sobre estas lentes y las puso en un video, teniendo, por cierto, varios errores.

      This was my impression too. I had to translate, which is roughly this:
      "From what I see here... I doubt you have tried these lenses and ever owned them. What he did was search the internet for information about these lenses and put them in a video, having, by the way, several errors."
      There doesn't seem to be any first-hand knowledge here, just copying other sources.

      @@tarzanxx I started with a Sony a100 camera and a Minolta 7000i, with some Minolta lenses. Over the years I have researched a lot of information on Minolta lenses, apart from my own experience, and this review has no soul, it only scratches the surface of various reviews which, in turn, may perhaps be copies of copies... but clearly this user does not bring a real experience.

    I don't think so... the 10 lenses above aren't the best lenses... they are only average. Best Minolta AF lenses are: 16mm F2.8 Fisheye, 28mm F2 RS, 35mm F2 RS, 50mm F1.4 RS, 85mm F1.4 RS or Limited D, 100mm F2, 100mm F2.8 Macro, 80-200mm F2.8 HS APO G, 200mm F2.8 HS APO G, 200mm F4 Macro, 300mm F2.8 HS APO G, 400mm F4.5 HS APO G, 600mm F4 HS APO G. These are the primes of Minolta AF-System... if you are looking for zoomes, then you should take theese ones: 35-105 F3.5-4.5 (first version), 80-200 HS APO G (white version)

      @@cjewe1z restyled. The Original AF lenses were metal, the second generation restyled with the rubber focus and zoom ring and plastic lens body and for the ones that made it to the third generation the "D" classification had eight pins and additional smarts in the AF system as well as restyled zoom and focus rings. Some of the later lenses got better lens coatings as well like the 100-300 D APO.

    If you think 85mm f/1.4 the no.1, I think you don't have 100mm f/2, 135mm f/2 MD,35mm f/1.4 g ,35mm f/2, and also try 135mm stf,this quality almost same with md f/2. If you try those lenses your best rank will change dramatically.

    • @princeharbinger

      At close to $7,000.00, one would have to be insane to purchase that 135mm F/2. When you could buy the Samyang 135mm F/1.8 for far less and it would optically blow it away.

    Completely pointless to mix the manual focus SR mount with the A-mount and the images showed many lenses that were not Minolta, everything was very messy.
