Re: Which 50mm lens?
I have 3 Minolta 50mm 1.7 lenses and here is why. 1st lens- had to have one as everyone raves about them. Bought one on Ebay and was very happy with it. Clean, focus good. It was missing back plastic cover, so the seller "threw in" an old 7000 camera as cover, and the Minolta lens cap was ...

Scared me half to death, and they can be really dangerous if ...

Re: Challenge 8: "Funny Face"
Steve, welcome aboard. That photo says everything about Alpha colour versus other makes! Also, it's funny this, real memories of doing this with foam as a kid.
