Another batch of shots with the Minolta MD 28-85mm f/3.5-4.5, a lens that has been a real surprise. Highly underrated and largely overshadowed by much more applauded MD 35-70mm, the MD 28-85mm is a well-built 13-element in 10-groups two-touch zoom construction, with an optical design that includes aspherical and floating elements.
Though comparatively bulky when adapted to the smallish Pen E-P5, it is still a nice fit and comfortable to hold. Images on the 2x crop sensor are full-frame equivalents of 56, 70, 100, 140, and 165mm. Holding the camera steady at the long end of the zoom could be quite a situation, as you will need very steady hands or have the camera well supported.
