Re: Which 100mm?


There are lots of small,very good IQ, affordable legacy lenses under 500g,with focal length 100mm and similar.

Basing on my own experience I would point out a handfull of most interesting and up to the criteria above:

Minolta MD/Rokkor 100/2.5 and MD/Rokkor Macro 100/4
Nikkor 105/2.5 AI/AIS or Micro Nikkor 100/2.8 AIS or Nikon E 100/2.8
Contax Sonnar 100/3.5
Olympus OM Zuiko 100/2.8
Konica Hexanon AR 100/2,8
EBC Fujinon X or M42 100/2.8
Canon FD 100/2 and 100/2.8 and 100/4 Macro
Elmarit R 90/2.8 or Summicron R 90/2 or Elmar R Macro 100/4
Rolleinar AR 105/2.5 QBM

For maximum IQ and versatility,yet at cost of higher price and weight,Voigtlander Apo Macro Lanthar 110/2.5 is the best,closely followed by Makro Planar ZE/ZF 100/2

Olympus OM Zuiko 90/2 Macro,Leitz Apo Macro Elmarit R 100/2.8 and Contax Makro Planar 100/2.8 are also great lenses with character,but pricey and a little heavier than 500g

You can find my samples from all those lenses on the Sony A7 series browsing Sony FE image thread

Hope this helps.
