Vintage Lens Shootout: Minolta 55mm f/1.7 vs Canon FL 55mm f/1.2
A true western vintage lens shootout! I squint my way through three different comparisons between the Minolta Rokkor 55mm f/1.7 and the Canon PF 55mm f/1.2. Both lenses date from the 1970's and present unique character and rendering.
"There are two kinds of photographers in this world, those who have vintage glass... and those who dig (for it)."
