Pros: Sharpness, bokeh, microconstrasto

Cons: Weight, size

Opinion: I mention this objective reporting what is written on an external site (digitalrokkor.altervista.org/minoltalens_zoom.html): "Objective produced by Minolta in the early '80s and built for Leica in the following years as Leitz Vario Elmar R 70-210 4 (is the successor to the MD Rokkor 75-200mm f4.5, also built by Leica as Vario Elmar R 75-200 4.5). The optical efficiency is excellent (as also for the previous version) and mechanical construction is such as to make it actually "perfect". This is undoubtedly one of the best tele zoom manufactured by Minolta for optical quality and especially mechanical. It reaches the position Macro 1: 3.9 to 210mm with a minimum focusing distance of 1.1m. The diaphragm 9 blades gives it a good return on bokeh. The performance is very similar to that of a fixed lens with excellent color rendering, nice focus, good contrast and sharpness (especially for medium and short distances). They were, however, detected some chromatic aberration, especially to major openings diaframmto. Other shortcomings of this objective are the weight and excessive clutter. It 'was revived in the system of Minolta AF (also known under the name "beercan"), in 1985 approximately, with identical optical design of the MD. "RnrnPersonalmente I consider it an excellent lens, with a yield already good at f / 4 and amazing closing; the resolution is high at every focal, losing a minimum 210mm. From what I can understand - not an expert - the acutance is very high. I was extremely impressed by the sharpness and overall performance, the lens returning sharp images , engraved and color fidelity. The post-production is minimized if anything was really necessary. The use of both digital, with Nikon D3200 + adattaore Fotodiox that on film, Minolta XG 1.rn
