Overview

The Minolta MF 135mm f/2.8 T4.5 STF is a manual-focus lens renowned for its unique apodization element, which produces exceptionally smooth bokeh. It is razor sharp with excellent color and build quality, featuring an all-metal construction. Weaknesses include a heavy weight (730g), no autofocus, and a slow T4.5 transmission due to the apodization filter. It suits photographers who prioritize bokeh quality over speed and convenience, particularly portrait and wedding shooters.
