    Overview

    The Minolta Rokkor-QE 100mm f/3.5 Auto Tele is a vintage manual lens praised for exceptional sharpness wide open at f/3.5, with minimal coma and chromatic aberrations. However, it is very sensitive to flare, making the hood essential. Build quality is excellent, with all-metal construction and smooth focusing, though the lens is heavy and large. It suits photographers who value optical performance and don't mind flare sensitivity and weight.
