Minolta MC W.Rokkor-SG 28mm f/3.5

Minolta MC W.Rokkor-SG 28mm f/3.5 - Good Condition | Classic Wide-Angle Prime in Minolta SR/MC Mount

The Minolta MC W.Rokkor-SG 28mm f/3.5 is a beautifully crafted wide-angle prime from Minolta's celebrated MC Rokkor lens lineage — a sharp, compact, and characterful optic that delivers an expansive wide-angle perspective with the natural rendering quality that Rokkor glass is universally renowned for. The SG designation indicates a specific optical formula within the W.Rokkor wide-angle family, while the MC (Meter Coupled) designation confirms full metering compatibility with Minolta SR/MC mount bodies. The 28mm focal length is a classic choice for landscape, architecture, street, and environmental portrait photography — capturing a broad field of view while maintaining natural proportions. In Minolta SR/MC mount, it pairs naturally with the full range of Minolta SR/MC/MD film bodies and adapts effortlessly to modern mirrorless systems. Serial number SR 1597607.
