Re-discovering old lenses. This is taken with my very first 50mm Minolta, purchased many many years ago, 1979. I used my Sony A6000 with a fotasy nex adapter and then set on the camera on the sepia affect, manual focus nothing else.
If I remember correctly...which is increasingly uncommon...you've pressed this Minolta previously into service for 365. Yea or nay, the shades and textures are pleasing. Big fav.
@s4sayer So grateful for the fav, thank you a great deal. I've used my old zoom 70-200mm but I forgot about this little one. Just in time for R's NF month. Last year I used my Sony 16-50mm with frustration. Now I can really count on 50mm instead of what the lens wants to do. :):)
@haskar Thank you so much for the fav. I also re-adjusted my diopter on the Sony- my eyes continue to play tricks with my focus.
@domenicododaro Thank you so kindly for the fav. Old is new again, I am on the hunt for some old Leica lenses but I think that I may have to go to LA for that.
@henrir Thank you so much. I've under a heating pad due to a strained back so I've been re-reading my Sony manual and books- learning how much I don't know nor use on this camera.
It's nice to learn more about our cameras. I know I have tons o learn. I'm sorry you have to have a hurting back to have time to learn about your camera. I do hope it is better soon. Take it easy.
@joemuli Thank you so kindly for the fav. I am glad that I found this old lens. Makes cleaning ones room worth while :):) @golftragic Thank you so much. Old stuff rules! @samae Thank you a great deal.
