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.

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...
