About this product

Product Information

For sharp pictures with good color saturation, balance, and a large aperture, the Minolta Maxxum AF 50mm f/1.7 AF Lens is an affordable SLR option. This lens is an autofocus SLR with a focal length of 50mm and is designed with enter-weighted metering, which comes with a life-sensing touch switch. This allows the user to turn on the meter without putting pressure on the button; all you have to do is touch it. You can also use this feature to turn on and lock the autofocus, using a little extra pressure on the button. And to shoot, just press the button all the way. This version of the Minolta A-mounting system lens is compatible with Minolta Maxxum and Sony Alpha cameras. How it works is the AF, or autofocus, motor in the camera connects to the lens from the external lens mount. Just use the screwdriver-like connection to twist on your lens and start snapping pictures. The lens also comes with a body-integral AF system and full digital computer control. It’s a fixed, or prime, lens that can operate both on auto and manual modes. The 50mm length on the lens gives you pictures almost like what you can see with your bare eyes, the 35mm lens being the closest to your natural eyesight. 50mm lenses are also essential to any photographer because the wide aperature allows more light into the lens, allows you to use a faster shutter speed or lower ISO, or a combination of the two. Bokeh, which is how the lens renders focal areas, is typically better with a 50mm lens. It also prevents the dreaded camera shake, and it’s very versatile and travels well. And the Minolta AF 50mm f/1.7 AF Lens actually has a wider aperture at f/1.7, comparable to Zeiss and Pentax lenses, than the typical f/1.8 you get with Nikon, Canon, and Olympus brands, allowing even more light into your photo. Also, the lowest aperture for this lens is f/22, making this a great addition to your gear. The lens is lightweight and portable at only 6 ounces, and with a diameter of only 2.6 inches, it easily fits into your camera bag. The lens also comes with a filter. The Tiffen 49 to 55 step up ring lets you use a 55 mm threaded filter on the 50 mm lens. It’s made of aluminum alloy to prevent the filter from jamming.
