    Overview

    The Minolta MC Rokkor-PF 50 mm f/1.7 is a well-built, all-metal lens with smooth focus and positive aperture detents. Optically, it delivers superb sharpness from f/4 onward, with smooth, pleasing bokeh and minimal distortion. Weaknesses include a relatively large size for its speed and a short focusing distance of 55 cm. It suits photographers seeking a durable, affordable normal lens for Minolta film bodies or mirrorless digital cameras.
