Minolta 28mm f/2.8 MD Lens

The Minolta 28mm f/2.8 MD is a compact and dependable wide-angle prime from the classic Minolta manual-focus lineup. Known for its solid metal construction and smooth focusing feel, this lens pairs beautifully with Minolta bodies like the X-700, X-570, and SRT series.

At 28mm on 35mm film, this lens provides a versatile wide field of view that works well for street photography, landscapes, environmental portraits, and everyday shooting. It’s wide enough to capture context without introducing the heavy distortion you often see with ultra-wide lenses.

These lenses are also very popular for adapting to modern mirrorless cameras thanks to their compact size and pleasing vintage rendering.

Condition: Good

• Mild internal haze present
• Minor internal dust consistent with age
• No fungus observed
• Aperture blades are clean and oil-free
• Focus ring turns smoothly
• Cosmetics show normal wear

The mild haze may slightly reduce contrast in strongly backlit scenes, but the lens remains very usable and capable of producing pleasing vintage images.

A solid budget-friendly wide-angle option for Minolta shooters or anyone adapting vintage lenses to mirrorless systems.
