I found all the UC-coated Konica lenses always show the gorgeous colors than other normal Konica AR lenses.

Wow! That first photo is an absolutely great portrait. Is this your son?
I love the UC 45-100, a wonderful lens with a great collapsible design. Mine has some oil on the aperture blades, unfortunately.

Yes Bro that boy is my son. My UC451 was as that oil-blades condition too and make the aperture a little sticky, I have to send it to CLA. Anyway I really like to use it.

Here'sw another one with sticky aperture ...



Interesting construction, but kind of outdated already when it went in production. The 50-100mm range was typical for eraly zooms from the mid-1960s (e. g. Minolta 3.5/50-100mm and Nikkor 43-86mm). Later lenses in this range such as the Minolta MD 2.8/40-80mm, the Mamiya CS 3.5/45-90mm or the Konica AR 3.5/45-100mm all were unsucessful.

Hi Stephan Smile
On the time scale you provide, this Hexanon was an early comer. I have 89 of them in my database, with the earliest made in Nov. 1975 and the latest in Dec. 1988.
