Lots of strobe power and a high aperture, like f9 and 1/200 SS and ISO 100

Can I get an opinion on this lens?

it's 85mm but since I'm not shooting with a full frame the effective length is
127.5mm +or-

- Is it worth the $ to buy it?

- better to save and get something made for Digital?

I've bought Minolta MD Lenses for 25$ before.
I am not too familiar with that lens but I know that for a Canon EF Mount 85mm f1.8 lens, it is around 400$ for a lens with a superb review. I'd buy digital.

I have an adapter, been using SLR lenses.

Is there something about this specific lens that makes you think otherwise?

 

[spider]

MD to EOS Adaptors are only 35 bucks on ebay. A great investment because MD lenses are usually cheap as dirt!

Nope, I just completely forgot about the adapter xD! (I just copy and pasted that from the ebay link xD)

I've got a Minolta X-7A (with battery grip) and 80-200mm lens with 2x teleconverter that I'll trade off

 

[Nerri1029]

I got rid of my 35mm stuff, kept some lenses, which is why I'm shooting with a SONY DSLR.

So I'm looking at this:

SONY 100mm F2.8

 

[spider]

I don't know anything about Sony. Always been shooting with Canon since I started.

Anyone have new portraits to post? My next concept shoot is Sunday

 

[Crysta]

I dont know anything about sony either...canon girl here... :0!

 

[spider]

I'll trade you the minolta kit for a lens Crysta
