Hello,
I have been looking into buying a Minolta Maxxum 5 to go with the kit I already have. However, as I thought about it I began to wonder. I know that Minolta lenses will work on Sony bodies, but will the reverse be true? Will my 50mm 1.8 work properly on the 5? Another point I need clarification on is that a film camera is roughly equivalent to today's FF cameras, right? So, if my lenses do work on the 5, then 50mm will truly be 50mm.
Any help much appreciated!
