Minolta MC Rokkor-PG 58mm F1.2

koji · Expire: 2012-12-27

I hardly see this lens in this forum, so here is one example. This one is modified for EF-mount,
seems less sharp at wide open comparing to my other MC Rokkor-PG 58/1.2 (still SR-mount).

Just one shot of roses @f1.2 with EOS_5D hand held.

I was a bit sick these days, but alright. Have a nice holiday folks. Very Happy

I just converted this lens to EF mount... (Rokkor-PG 58mm f1.2)...

All wide open..

Weather is really bad outside... (no snow.. just icy road).. Need to take the lens outside for more testing...

koji,
I just got the 1.4/58 Rokkor off the bay. I hope it has the magic your 1.2 has? I am going to do the conversion so it will fit my 40d.
If it works out I may try a 1.2

You have made a nice capture there with your lens and rose Laughing

and the reds look good, not easy to do with my Canon?

Thanks Bruce,

You have no problem with your Canon's with (future EF mount) PG 58/1.2.
I own 350D almost same as your 400D physically, this does not cause any
troubles so far. BUT 5D is not, you may have to shave its mirror or file off
some metal at the rear of Rokkor-PG 58/1.2 in order to avoid "mirror slap".

Good luck.
