This is a pancake lens, Mounted on my Sony a6000 it weighs nothing (the way I like it) so easy to handle and shoot, it's been in one of my old camera bag for a very long time, Got it out to play with and I was stung how good it was, it has a absolutely beautiful bokeh and beautiful Minolta colors, I haven't shot it much just because my 50, 58 and 85mm lenses are faster, But boy I was surprised.

So here are a few shots with it, look thou it might stay on my camera for a while shooting close ups with a 10mm extension tube.

Oh yes forgot to say, no processing, these are out of the camera.

Lovely set, Johnny !
This is another excellent lens from Minolta stable which can be had these days for next to nothing.
Full marks to you for really exploiting it.
#1 and #4 are my picks !

My A6500 usually has my 40 year old Olympus 50mm f1.4 on it.

Great pics, Johnny! That Minolta is worth it's weight in gold. Love the color, bokeh and softness!

Beautiful Johnny...I was a Minolta man for years when shooting film...I bought a DSLR before they went out of the camera trade. Konica took them over and this camera was a Konica-Minolta...only 6MP but did a good job...still have a few Minolta lenses...
