Thank you very much to Jason for the information... I get it now... SRT 102 I see is true in Black, yes I think now, it is the non MLU version... Thank You...
Has someone indeed tested the MD1.4 against the MD 1.7 ? http://www.overaljevriendenbijje.nl/#superdeal...

Nice to have a 500mm f1.4 :-) Not sure I'd make something that size my standard, however. The others have been tested several times and discussed many times...
I'm saving up for a 750mm/1.2, which me thinks would be the perfect standard lens :) Paul. www.rolleiflexclub.nlwww.pauljenner.nl We've got everything you...

Hi, Â Try calling KEH and other camera repair centers. The chances of finding one of these lenses for parts is rare. Â It's a fantastic lens, too bad it's...
I have placed calls all over the place and have sent out a number of email as well. I can buy another good lens, but will probably wait awhile in case a cheap...
I can almost guarantee it will be your size, I mean just as big and wide as you physically or maybe even larger. ;-) Henrik Nice to have a 500mm f1.4 :-) Not...
Max, Â I used to be a Minolta guy until the introduced the Maxxum line in the 1980's, I had every lens from the 7.5 through the 500mm. I sold most of my stuff...
Thanks Rick, I am very much a Canon guy and the 5D is my main weapon of choice. I have a lot of Canon glass. But getting into the "alt glass" scene has been...
I don't know if this works, or how well, but I have seen it recommended in a number of places that very carefully painting the scratch (and only the scratch!)...
I wish it was just a scratch. This is the rear element. The last round glass lens is about 20mm in diameter. In the center of this lens I have managed to put a...
This really is a heart wrenching tale, but you may have to chalk it up to "school fees". Back then these lenses were hand assembled with elements and groups...
I have used some of these lenses, and others as well, and here is what I think I have found out. I had an early 50mm f/1.7 Rokkor-X and found it disappointing...
Interesting reading Michael. I have not tried any of the Minolta 50mm lenses. I do have an early metal focus ring Rokkor 58/1.2 and quite frankly I am just...

Max, Â Sorry for the delay in my reply. I started out with Minolta but now have plenty of Nikon glass and their full frame D700, and also a few Canon DSLR's. I...
Hi, Â The 28mm f3.5 SG Rokkor MC was the first meter coupled lens that I owned and cost me $130 in 1969. I still have it. It was very underrated and is very...
I emailed about 30 repair shops and no one seems to have the rear element or a cheap damaged copy of this lens. I think I will have to buy another lens. But I...
Max, Â From what I've read on Photo.net and Fred Miranda threads the Olympus 21mm f2 is a great lens on the 5D. How do you plan on mounting and achieving...
Rick, What I did was remove all the rear mount components from the 21mm lens. Some of the goodies like the aperture pin get discarded. The main Minolta rear...
I tried a coupler to my Canon EOS, not good results. What should I do with it? Toss it, sell it on ebay. I have never sold anything before. I used it once...
Bill,  I sold my 7.5mm on Ebay a few years back for $650. Unless you want to use it with film it's not worth keeping. The performance of mine was OK, Sigma...
When I told my wife about selling it, she got really pissed. She said she would use it, liked the effects. Asked her if she wanted me to mount it on her XG-1...
Oh yeah, we are going the Shawangunks (called the gunks here) next weekend, just south of the Catskills, Bethel Woods. The 2008 music season has ended, but...
I, too, had a MC W. Rokkor SG 28mm f/3.5 that I bought in Hong Kong in 1975. I was very surprised at how sharp it was all the way out to the corners. Since it...
Hi, Here is an image I took a few years back using my Minolta 16mm f2.8 MC Rokkor-X and XD11. I scanned it with a Nikon Coolscan 9000. The image was taken...
