Minolta MC W.Rokkor 35mm f/2.8 - Good Condition | Classic Wide-Angle Prime in Minolta SR/MC Mount

The Minolta MC W.Rokkor 35mm f/2.8 is a beautifully crafted wide-angle prime from Minolta's celebrated MC Rokkor lens lineage — a sharp, fast, and characterful optic that delivers a natural and versatile wide-angle perspective with the characteristic rendering quality that Rokkor glass is universally renowned for. The MC (Meter Coupled) designation confirms full metering compatibility with Minolta SR/MC mount bodies, while the W.Rokkor designation identifies it as part of Minolta's respected wide-angle lens family. The 35mm focal length is a classic choice for landscape, street, architecture, and environmental portrait photography — wide enough to capture the scene without excessive distortion. 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 1032516.
