The Minolta 100 - 200mm F4.5 and HVL-F20S review

The Minolta 100-200 F4.5 is a cheap alternative for a zoom lens if you have the LA-EA2 off course.  I was about 10 ft from the stage. The AF  of the LA-EA2 (what's it call..aaa..ya..Phase Detection) is fast and accurate. Took the opportunity to used it at these young talented kids concert here in Kuching recently. Well  its not a really comprehensive review, but my mark on the Minolta is 3/5 and the flash also 3/5, mind you that the max sync speed of the flash is 1/160s ( professional wise - not good, but who am I to say, I am no pro).

Minolta 100-200 AF + Sony NEX5N

Not the sharpest and fastest lens, but it does the work for those who have no issue with super sharpness especially at 200mm. Check out my sample picture of the Minolta AF 100-200 F4.5.

This guy will not stay put if you are too close. With the Minolta, this shot is possible. Wonder how I it would be if this is a F2.8G lens.

This is taken at full 200mm. Not sharp :(
