Five Bucks? I'll Take It.

Found this at a local antiques mall/flea market. Was labeled $10, but when I got up to the register it was half off.
Lens is a 28mm-70mm, came with instructions for both the lens and the Konica Adaptall mount. Also included a UV/Hazefilter.
I can't find a thing wrong with it; looks near brand new to me. Lens mounted to my camera is wonderfully clean  and clear.
I know that I can get other mounts, or alternatively Fotodiox sells adapters for these lenses as well, so I should be able to use it on a lot of future cameras as well.
Lovely.
               

Excellent find.  Send pics you take with it.

Thanks, I'll post them, but it will be a while. I have about 30 more exposures on that roll yet. It is older, expired Kodak Gold, so maybe not the best test. But I definitely plan to try this lens with the rest of that roll.

You're killing me here. Super find indeed.

Mike,

So let me understand here.  You are using film for these pictures and not digital?  If so, I am more impressed.

Don't be. Not film. All the pics I've shared online so far are from point and shoot digitals. I have film being developed, and I'll share those if any of them are worthy. But the ones posted online are P&S digital shots. I do not own a DSLR, just old 35mm SLRs.
One of the reasons for the other thread I posted about digital cameras is so I can put those Minolta lenses and this lens to work in the digital medium.
But I like shooting both digital and film; just want to move to a DSLR so I can use my lenses.
BTW, I will be putting some film through an X700 using my "new" Minolta lenses hopefully this weekend. That should be loads of fun!
