This is my Rollei Planar 1.8/50. I think it is a beauty!
The adapter works, but I need f8 to get focus on infinity.
This shot was taken with a Minolta MC Rokkor-PF 1.7/50 at my EOS 350D, something that is normally not possible. It needed a little lens hack. (I still have to find a way to increase the max focus distance which is about 1-2 m at the moment.)
I thought, I show you before I pick up my wife and son and will not be here often in the next days...

The Minolta hack didn't work with this newer lens.
I tried to dremel the adapter and the lens, but wasn't able to gain much.
So it's only good for shots up to 2m. 
You need an older Rokkor to make it adaptable.
