Konica Minolta 24-105mm f/3.5-4.5 D AF
9 out of 10 points and recommendedgreat build quality, overall sharp lensegets a little soft on the edges at f/22I use this lense on a 24 meg A900, which demands high quality glass. The lense seems to do well between f/8 and f/16. It is disappointing when you go to f/22, as the edges begin to show visible softness. Still, I really like this lens and rely on it for much of my wideangle work. I think most folks would be pleased with its' performance and the overall quality of the construction.

Konica Minolta 600mm f/4 APO G AF
10 out of 10 points and recommendedoutstanding image qualityextremely heavyHands down the best lense I have ever owned. If you want outstanding image quality, this is the lense. It is heavy and awkward to carry around, but the images produced be this lense make it all worthwile.

Konica Minolta 300mm f/2.8 APO G D SSM AF
10 out of 10 points and recommendedoutstanding imge quality, and the lense is built like a tankheavythis is a wonderful piece of glass, and the images it produces are simply outstanding. It is heavy and awkward to handle, but worth the effort. It is not one designed for hand holding, as it should me mounted on either a monopod or tripod. The weight is significant, and the image quality is incredible.
