  1. Since a few months, I do collect experiences with several Minolta Rokkor MD and MC legacy lenses on the A7. So far, I tried out: MD 17mm f/4 MD 35mm f/1.8 MD 50mm f/1.2 MC 85mm f/1.7 MD 100mm f/3.5 macro MD 135mm f/2 MD 300mm f/4.5 RF 500mm f/8 A description and extensive evaluation of most of these lenses can be found on this old but beautiful page: http://www.rokkorfiles.com/Lens%20Reviews.html I use a Novoflex NEX/MIN-MC-MD adapter, which is excellently built and extremly precise. Infinity stop is always exactly at infinity on all the lenses (except the RF, which is not meant to stop at infinity), which is nice for night photography. With all the lenses, I got good to very good results without anyoing reflexes or disturbing vignetting. My favorites are the MD 135mm f/2, which is extremly sharp and the MC 85mm f/1.7 which shows wonderful smoothness in portraits. Especially the 135mm delivers a bokeh to die for. Example photographs can be seen on http://500px.com/lui and http://500px.com/groups/minolta-rokkor-lenses/photos . All the best
