Exc.+++ Minolta Maxxum for Sony A Mount 28-70mm f/2.8 AF Lens Japan
05 January 2018
Double Edged Sword
When you have great lighting, this lens puts out a gorgeous image sooc w/o post. However, you absolutely must use a lens hood because it flares like crazy with anything back lit. My copy is softer at 2.8 at 70mm than my mino 70-200 f4 beer can wide open at 70mm. Forget about getting close to a subject's face on full frame. The MFD is about a yard. For the money, the Tamron 28-75 2.8 macro is a very serviceable, sharp lens and will cost you less. The Tammy is more versatile, weighs less and can be used as a rather bulky but doable walk around. This mino is too big for walk around. I would say you could use it for events, but it focuses VERY slow and it hunts like a witch in low light, so I'd imagine it would ruin your reputation if you tried to shoot a wedding reception with it, but I haven't tried that so I could be wrong. Compared to my other minoltas, which are just "d" lenses, it focuses about half as fast. If you are a collector and you want an old lens that can inspire you with it's beautiful color and contrast with good bokeh for a zoom, you will really enjoy this lens. If you want a reliable work horse that won't give you a back ache of you carry it all day, get the Tammy. I felt like I always had to do more work in post with the Tammy though, even with well composed, well lit shots, but I didn't miss as many shots in low light/indoors either, so.... For a $300-$500 lens in this zoom range and speed those are the two best options I've found. Choosing one is just a matter of deciding which trade offs you're more comfortable with and how much you want to pay.

Good enough, worth the price.
The pony we received looks like a factory second, but you have to look closely to notice the flaws. My six year old loves it! This item elsewhere was 20 to 40 dollars, so it's definitely worth the six bucks I paid, and there's nothing glaringly wrong about it. The paint is a tad uneven on one eye, the plastic looks a bit warped on one side, but again nothing too major. You have to look closely to see any inconsistencies. Arrived earlier than expected too, which really made my daughter happy!
