Minolta MD Celtic 135mm f3.5

     Don't judge a lens by its price.  This lens performs well and is made well.  The 135mm f3.5 is compact and built solid.  Aperture clicks at f3.5 then f5.6 and then at 1/2 stops beween f5.6 and f16.  It has a built in hood.  Focus throw is a long 3/4 turn.  Minimum focus is approximately 4.5 feet.  It handles well on the Eos M3.  Focusing with 135's can be a chore but this one isn't too bad.  At f3.5 it is reasonably sharp but does suffer from purple fringing.  At f5.6 it tightens up.  I have only shot a few pics with it but I can say that it performs well at medium to long range.  Contrast is consistent and quite good for a budget telephoto.
