Equipment Type: Lens
Equipment Brand: Minolta
Equipment Model: AF 28-135mm F4-4.5 (Zeiss Killer)
Price (S$): $130
Description:
This is the famed Minolta 28-135mm "Zeiss Killer" lens that is known for its sharpness. It had been compared very favorably with the Sony Carl Zeiss 24-70mm F2.8 lens (that's why it's nickname is "Zeiss Killer"). You can refer to the numerous reviews of this lens at Dyxum
Lens is in good working condition without fungus or mold. Focusing and zooming rings turn smoothly. Cosmetically it is in fairly good shape, with some user marks on the body and there is a small scrape at the edge of the front glass (9 o'clock position) where part of the coating was damaged. The small scrape is purely cosmetic and I have not been able to detect any sign of image deterioration even when shooting with a demanding full frame camera. If you are an experienced photographer, you should probably know by now that such minor blemishes on the glass will have negligible impact to your final pictures as compared to your own skills. Check out this article by Kurt Munger to find out how much damage the front glass can take without affecting image quality.
You are welcome to test the lens before buying. Lens comes with both front and rear caps.
Some sample shots at 28mm, 70mm and 135mm, shot wide open can be seen here. You can try to hunt for any impact to the picture quality, that is if you can find any, lol.
This lens will work on all Minolta and Sony DSLRs / DSLTs natively and also NEX or the A7x with the LAEA-2/4 adaptor.
