Minolta MD lenses + Sony A7iii= 😊

Serious, the neatest thing to happen in photography, for me, has been lens adapters and mirrorless cameras…that I can now use old manual-focus lenses on modern DSLRs…has just opened up SO MANY POSSIBILITIES! We stock Fotodiox adapters.

A couple weeks ago, I went out with a Sony A7iii, a Tenba backpack, an Optechusa camera strap, and 3 Minolta MD lenses from our Used Dept. The lens lineup was classic — 24mm, 45mm, and 100mm.

It was a such a PLEASURE making photos! With all the automation in our cameras, it was fun to have the focus back in my hands, with lenses that were MADE for manual focus — that, combined with Focus Peaking and screen-magnification, made manually focusing these lenses easy!

So, what I’m getting at is this — if you shoot mirrorless, full-frame — whether it’s Sony A-cameras, Canon EOSR, or Nikon Z- you need to consider putting vintage glass on those bodies! We carry a selection of Fotodiox adapters, and what we don’t have, we can get very quickly for you!

I took that kit — Sony A7iii and Minolta MD 24mm, 45mm, and 100mm around Port Washington, Milwaukee, Riverwest, downtown Milwaukee, and had so much fun making pics!

The @tenbabags backpack was comfy, and minimalist, with a real reasonable price tag. 👍

And these #MinoltaMD lenses were FANTASTIC! Look at this — get you a wide-to-tele kit for under $350!!

So, come on over to the store, browse our Used Dept, and let’s figure out how to put some vintage glass on your modern mirrorless, full-frame camera!
