Thank you!
Very interessting to see the old primes an the new zoom lens in comparrison.
I am disappointed with the Minolta MD 24/2.8 performance. Even on the smaller NEX sensor such bad corner quality. Is the Sigma 24 lens used with the same adapter?

Both 24/2.8s are on the same adapter, i tested both lenses on another, longer adapter with pretty much the same results. Someone on mi-fo.de mentioned that the Rokkor 24/2.8 often has problems with dirty inner lenses so i will clean my lens and repeat the test.

Thank you for the interessting read! I am searching for a Rokkor 24mm/2.8 since some time, and this problem is good to know!
