While looking through ebay for bargains I found this. Minolta MD 35- 70mm f3.5 constant aperture zoom. Has 3 days and 12 hours left, no bids, from Henry's in...
I dont know if I am allowed to post this but I am getting rid of my minolta, lenses and filters on ebay. Taking a break from 35 mm for a few months and saving...
I am looking at this lens to buy for my 2nd x-700 body. I don't think that the lens in the picture corresponds with the description. Description is 28-70mm,...
... I have replied, but it seems not to have made it. Anyway, the lens is clearly a 50mm f2.8. The disparity is too great for it to be a con, I think it's just...
Thanks, that is what I was thinking also. I contacted the seller to verify what the actual lens is. Btw thanks for the link, I'll take a look at that. Glenn ...
I suggest you look at the MINOLTA 35-70 f3.5 constant aperture zoom or the 28-85. Both of these have excellent reviews on the rokkorfiles.com site. I have...
I already have the 28-85mm f3.5-4.5, and also the 70-210 f4 you mention. They are both great. My intention is to get a similar lens to the 28-85 for my second...
i have a recently acquired xg-m that has a diaphragm-metering ring that's very stiff in a way that makes me think it just needs a new spring. i've seen it...
My wife recently went through her dead father's belongings and came up with pristine condition lenses and SRT 101 and X700. I need to get some idea of the...

Nobody gets off the bus. He is going to end up with them anyway. Might as well keep the both, use them then leave them to him later. He may come to his senses...
Hi All, I'm new to this group. And I'm interested in the 58 1.2 MC Rokkor PG lens, but I still wonder that are there any different between the 2 model of this...
I could not get a straight answer from anyone, not even the Fuji company! Now I can tell all of you, advanced point and shoot digital cameras, even the ones...
Hi! Acquired an XE-7 and it looks like the previous owner twisted off the round black cap that holds the film advance lever onto the hub. I managed to drill...
You may have to look for a "parts" XE-7 and transplant the advance lever. You might try contacting some of the repair services listed in Shutterbug Magazine...
You are correct. To produce the same depth of field as a larger camera divide the aperture of the larger camera by the ratio between film and/or sensor sizes....
I have an older style 58/1.2 that I'd like to sell. It's been sitting in a drawer for a long time and I'd have to check it out but the last time I looked it...
I always thought that f-stop and focal length determined Depth of Field and format size had little or nothing to do with it. Obviously the world of digital has...
You are absolutely correct that depth of field for a given focal length, f-stop, distance **and final print magnification** are the same. But the world of...
I bought a passle of old Minolta's for the average price of $12 plus shipping. I also do ebay searches from time to time for minolta parts or repair and there...
