[QUOTE="Binastro, post: 3530915, member: 111403"] I used the Minolta 101b, 303b for more than ten years, but switched to a Minolta X500 quite happily. The latter bought from a professional who used it for 2 rolls of film. Also bought the Vivitar solid cat 600mm f/8 from him for a really silly price as he didn't need it. This was used by law enforcement etc. Invented by an Argentine optics designer. One of the best designers. This lens separated both components of epsilon Lyrae at 180x with clear space in between. About 2.4 arcseconds. No change from 20C to 0C. using a 3x teleconverter on Slik 88 tripod. The professional showed me 10x8 trannies of beautiful ladies that were unbelievably high quality photos. Actually reduced in size for magazines. [/QUOTE]
