This specific unit is a standout because of its versatile 100mm focal length—a perspective that offers a more flattering compression for faces than a standard 85mm, yet remains more manageable than a heavy 135mm lens. The \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"5\" data-index-in-node=\"376\"\u003eMD\u003c\/b\u003e series optics are famous for their balanced contrast and vibrant \"Minolta color\" saturation, making this lens particularly effective for color film stocks like Kodak Portra or Fujifilm Pro 400H. Because it is significantly lighter than its predecessors, it is also a favorite for adaptation to modern mirrorless systems.

The glass is optically clear; free from fungus, haze, or significant scratches. The aperture blades are clean, snappy, and free of oil. The focusing ring is smooth and well-dampened across the entire range, and the MD lug is in perfect condition for use with program\/shutter-priority modes on compatible bodies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eSpecialist Note\u003c\/b\u003e \"The 100mm f\/2.5 is the hidden gem of the Rokkor lineup. What I love about this lens is the 'reach'—it gives you just enough distance from your subject to make them feel comfortable, while the f\/2.5 aperture melts the background away. It’s a rugged, honest piece of Japanese engineering that is surprisingly small for such a fast telephoto. For anyone using a Minolta X-700 or XD-7, this lens feels perfectly balanced and delivers a level of sharpness that rivals much more expensive European glass. It’s an essential tool for anyone serious about analog portraiture.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"9\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"9,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eMinolta MD Tele Rokkor 100mm f\/2.5\u003c\/b\u003e Lens (S\/N: 1211713)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9,1,0\"\u003eFront and Rear Lens Caps\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"10\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,0,0\"\u003eBrand: \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"7\"\u003eMinolta\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,1,0\"\u003eModel: \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"7\"\u003eMD Tele Rokkor 100mm f\/2.5\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,2,0\"\u003eLens Type: Prime Lens\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,3,0\"\u003eFocal Length: 100mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,4,0\"\u003eAperture Range: f\/2.5 – f\/22\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,5,0\"\u003eLens Mount: Minolta MD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,6,0\"\u003eCategory: 2.
