Maxxum Sony Alpha
Posted on Monday, January 11, 2010 in Photography
is the minolta maxxum and the sony alpha mount the same?
i just got a minolta maxxum 7000 and i know that sony took over minolta's camera branch. when i was reading about the maxxum, ppl seem to talk about them like they are the same thing.
Every lens manufactured for the Minolta Maxxum series as well as lenses for the Konica-Minolta 5d & 7D DSLRs will be right at home on any Sony DSLR. The Sony web site lists over 100 compatible lenses. The March 2010 issue of SHUTTERBUG has an article on using older lenses on modern DSLRs. http://www.shutterbug.com
