Minolta Pro Shot 20 Review

[C-41] I shot this film at 200 on a Minolta X-700. While this wasn’t the only film I shot, the photos came out stunning.

[Neoprene] I am a very armature photographer and the shot's I got with this lens makes me look like a pro.

[12.05 lb] I have been using Speedo for over 20 years. Have shot with other pack but always circle back to Speedo. Reliable and Affordable.

[Nikon Z] The Pro Lens Mount Adapter for Minolta MD to Nikon F Mount lens adapter works great. It has allowed me to take advantage of my large Minolta MD lens collection.

[4.8 x 4 x 1.7"] Amazing! It is the fastest card. I can shot bird photo with more than 20 photos, without any delay.

[Nikon Z] allows use of legacy Minolta glass

[Nikon Z] This has given a second-life to my old Minolta lenses.

[0.95 lb] Tested out this cover in the desert in Arizona. Shot a 6 hour star lapse in 20 degree weather and it performed well. There was frost all over the cover but the camera was well protected. Seems to be built well like the other ruggard products I have. Great addition to the arsenal.

[f/22] In the right conditions, the results from this lens are very impressive. I assumed cropping with this lens would be problematic, but you can see the crop of the azalea (shot @230mm) shows plenty of detail. The mason jar shot was a test of the OIS. It's also @ 230mm, but at 1/20 sec. It's not exactly crisp, I would have trouble getting something that sharp at 1/20 sec with a 50mm without OIS. I would estimate the OIS gains 2-3 stops. It's obviously not as sharp as the XF zooms, but it does have one advantage: weight. This a lens I can easily carry around.

[0.835 lb] Great reflector with solid construction and ease of use. This is for sure a head shot reflector though, being only 20 there is very little spread with this one, but the quality of light you can use this for is wonderful!
