A few days ago I went down to the local Fish and Chip shot
for our weekly dose of greasy batter, and decided to take the camera to occupy
my time for a few moments. With a little one and another coming, I need to grab
every spare moment I can get. I was in
the mood for a weird lens, so I grabbed the Chiyoko (later Minolta) Tele-Rokkor
13.5cm f4 in Leica LTM mount and put in on the NEX5n.
Its actually a pretty good lens, more than decently sharp
and the bokeh is reminiscent of most telephoto lenses of this vintage, which is
to say it has an olde worlde kinda character.
While this particular lens is quite clean, it could probably do with a
CLA as the focus movement is a little stiff and jerky. Interestingly this lens only has a 4 digit
serial number, so I am sure not many were made.
