Minolta 85 f1.7 Rokkor - opinion please

yusuf · 01-20-2014, 02:14 AM

Anyone used Minolta 85 f1.7 Rokkor and the Pentax counterparts. How they compare?

Just wondering - I heard very good stories about Minolta 85 f1.7 and when I am offered one at good price, I am really tempted to pick it up. However, I already have other 85mm like K85/f1.8, M85, J9 & Samyang 85/1.4 and was especially wondering how K85/1.8 or Samyang 85 compares against Minolta 85 f1.7

Thanks
