Minolta MC Tele Rokkor 300mm f/4.5 - Minolta SR Mount

The MC Tele Rokkor 300mm f/4.5 is a substantial telephoto lens designed for wildlife and sports photography. Despite its long focal length, it maintains a relatively manageable size for handheld use, though it features a built-in tripod collar for better balance when mounted. The lens incorporates a retractable hood and uses a sophisticated optical layout to minimise chromatic aberrations, providing clear and detailed images at a distance. Due to its size, check for any impact damage to the barrel or filter threads. The tripod collar should lock securely without slipping. SDS technicians pay close attention to the focus action, as the long throw of a 300mm lens must be smooth for accurate results. We also check for internal fungal growth, which can occur in large telephoto lenses if they have been stored in damp conditions.
