Started "collecting" when I bought a Sony A7 and was planning on only using MF-lenses on it. In the end I bought the LA-EA4 adapter too and lots of fun AF-lenses for it and my A77. Because of it I have lately found that I don't use my rokkors at all. Wonder if I should sell them or just keep them for the future?

I was also very close to buy LA-EA4,but having 68 Minolta manual lenses alone and no Sony A camera,I'm still not quite clear whether to go for it ot not.
BTW:I still don't have the 75-150/4 and 35-105/3.5-4.5,that you got.
BTW2:How does the 35-105/3.5-4.5 perform on your A7?
Minolta MD 28/2.8,7/7-the last before last model,very decent lens.Small,solid and cheap.Don't mess it up with the very last 5/5,with plastic ring around the front lens rim - it is significantly worse. http://www.zeissimages.com/gallery/951/U951I1469992987.SEQ.7.jpg

I quite enjoy finding "special" lenses in A-mount such as lenses that were MF but got an AF-version in the end. For example Tamron 35-105/2.8 and Tokina 60-300/4-5.6 which both are very nice and sharp lenses.
Bought both the 75-150/4 and 35-105/3.5-4.5 in Japan when I lived there for a while. Never seen them here in Sweden. The 75-150/4 is very small and sharp but the range is a little short. As for the 35-105/3.5-4.5 it is unfortunately quite bad. I have the AF-version too and it is much better. Supposedly there are two Minolta SR versions of it, so I guess mine is the first not so good one.
Wonder if I should sell them or just keep them for the future?
