Konica Minolta AF DT 18-70/3.5-5.6 vs. Minolta AF 17-35/3.5 G

October 9th, 2006 - 04:44:13 PM:

Recently I bought the Konica Minolta AF DT 18-70/3.5-5.6 (D), the lens that is commonly sold as a kit with the Dynax/Maxxum 7D, 5D and, with a Sony name tag, with the Sony Alpha 100. At the same time, I already own the Minolta AF 17-35/3.5 G, so it was interesting to compare the two.

Help wanted

September 24th, 2006 - 04:16:57 PM:

I recently have added the order number and lens ID to the lens table. Unfortunately this information is very uncomplete, especially for older lenses. That's why I'm asking everybody to contribute this information before it becomes unavailable. The order numbers are often found on the original packaging, and the lens IDs are contained in the EXIF information of pictures taken with the corresponding lens. If you can't read out the lens ID yourself you can send in JPGs, too. These have to be taken with the 7D or 5D and must not have been manipulated with an image processing program. The quality and content doesn't matter. So just set the camera to the lowest quality and resolution and take a picture of an evenly colored surface. Then send the picture via the contact form and add a note about which lens was used (refer to table). Thank you!

500,000 visitors

July 28th, 2006 - 07:13:13 AM:

Recently the mark of 500,000 visitors was passed. June was a busy month. On June 5th, when Sony announced the A100 and associated lenses, the number of visits increased sharply. On June 6th, there were about twice as many visitors than average! In the meantime, these numbers came back to normal, with about 1400 visitors per day.
Thanks for your interest!
