Hey, whaddya mean "a Minolta of all things"? Some of my best pictures (and
also with the best bokeh) were taken on a Minolta with a 58/1.4 PF Rokkor.
I am currently saving up for my 9xi, 35/1.4 and 85/1.4 and I intend this to
be a serious outfit! And I suppose I will get a 50/1.4 at some point, and I
suppose I will excercise my photographic muscles by using the 50 on its own
sometimes...
