Overview

The Minolta MD Tele Rokkor 135mm f/2.8 is a well-built, all-metal manual focus lens with a smooth focus ring and a built-in hood that can pop open inadvertently. Optically, it offers sufficient sharpness for most tasks but is not as sharp as later models; bokeh is plain/Gauss type, and chromatic aberration and vignetting are improved over earlier versions. It suits portrait and action photographers seeking an affordable, durable vintage lens for Minolta SR-mount cameras.
