I have up for auction on e-bay a nice Minolta AF 70-210 4.5-5.6 if the auction fails again (no bids at 6.99!) it will go to the first member willing to pay postage. It is in very good shape. I have a good variety of AF lenses for my A7ii (too many, just ask my wife!) I have to tidy things up a bit, so cleaning out some lower tier items. The main impetus was a recent auction I had on a 35-80 4-5.6. It was in fully functional shape with sample pics. It even had good cosmetics. Had it BIN for 8.99. no nibbles. Put it to auction at 99c got one bid. Less than a dollar for a perfectly good AF mid range lens. Wow. Anyway I thought I would try to benefit the forum rather than just "giving" it to a random person on e-bay.

That's a great offer, these old Minolta AF lenses are so good with the LA-EA4 adaptor on a Sony mirrorless camera. _________________ LENSES & CAMERAS FOR SALE.....

Yes, while not as good as the beercan it is still pretty darn good and much lighter and more compact than that lens. As indicated I just have way too much stuff. (something like 300 lenses and 2 dozen cameras) There is nothing wrong with this lens. Free to a good home. I would feel bad throwing it in the trash can. Anybody? _________________ photos are moments frozen in time |

I've got the beercan, and the postage would kill it. Someone must surely want a good lens ? _________________ LENSES & CAMERAS FOR SALE.....

I didn't really expect any of you eurofolk to pipe up but I know we have members in several western US states. If the weather clears up and time allows I will post some sample photos. Been raining like crazy here for several days. _________________ photos are moments frozen in time |

Very generous, I would have had it, but postage to UK would be silly to you for the great gesture, these are overshadowed by the f4 but are great lenses _________________ My web site www.digital-darkroom.weebly.com
Life is like a camera. Focus on what's important, capture the good times, develop from the negatives and if things don't work out, just take another shot. |

Also good for Sony DSLR users! These are good, light and cheap, strange that you're not able to sell it in such a big country!
In EU they're not quite popular as well: auction from 2 days ago https://veiling.catawiki.nl/kavels/10262431-minolta-af-zoom-70-210mm-f4-5-5-6-1202 _________________ My Flickr photostream: http://www.flickr.com/photos/chantalrene/

Thanks Devin, you would need an adapter though as it is an A mount lens. That kinda spoils the whole"hey it was free!" vibe. I'll try for a few more days then its going in my wifes Goodwill basket. _________________ photos are moments frozen in time |
