So I am mentally composing an entry about my beloved Minolta SRT-101, and there will be talk about the awesome lens that came with it.
Through the magic of a Minolta to Nikon adapter, I was able to take some pictures using the lens on a more modern digital camera, so here is the setup:
The Rokkor lens is attached to my Nikon D40x via a 3rd party adapter from eBay.
The results are, honestly, great in my opinion:
The day was pretty crummy and poorly lit due to it basically being winter, dreary, overcast and snowing. The lens is still pretty clear and works nice and smoothly. Disregard the dings on the edge of the lens. I tripped over someone and myself and the SRT went down onto some concrete. The lens got a little dinged up, but it still works great! Biggest downside is that it no longer accepts any filters or anything.
