Vintage MINOLTA MC W.ROKKOR-SI 1:2.5 f=28mm Lens with Original Hood & Leather Case
  • Research indicates that an MC lens is a later (1966-77) enhancement of the Minolta SR mount (1958-66) and is backwards compatible.  The even later (1977-2001) enhanced Minolta MD lens is also backwards compatible with the MC and SR mounts, so this lens will fit both SR and MD cameras.  With the appropriate adapter, this lens will also fit modern digital cameras as well.
  • A nice lens.  The optics look clear except for a few specs of what looks like dust to me.  When I took the pictures I noticed a slight yellow color to the optics, which research indicates is corrected by exposure to UV (please verify this for yourself). The lens adjusted nicely and it seems to be working smoothly.  The exterior has a few minor marks from previous use.
  • The hood is slightly dusty but otherwise fine.
  • I cleaned the case of soiling from sitting in a dusty bag, and there is some leftover foam inside that fragmented and is sticking to the red velvet material.  The case is nice overall.
