Minolta MD Sun Tele-Auto 300mm f4.5 Lens
Description:
The Minolta MD AI Sun Tele-Auto 300mm f/4.5 is a vintage long telephoto lens built for photographers who want reach and compression without carrying extreme weight. With its 300mm focal length, it’s excellent for wildlife, field sports, landscapes, or even dramatic portraits that benefit from strong background separation. The f/4.5 aperture is bright enough for outdoor shooting, while its multi-coated optics maintain contrast and help control flare. Its robust all-metal construction and long, smooth manual focus throw make it a joy to handle on Minolta MD-mount film cameras — and it adapts beautifully to modern mirrorless systems for those chasing that classic telephoto rendering.

I understand—it can be overwhelming to choose with so many options available.
For everyday use, I usually recommend Kodak Gold 200 or Kodak Ultramax 400 as both are super versatile, offer beautiful, rich colours, and are quite forgiving.
If you’re looking for black-and-white film, Ilford XP2 400 is a great option for ease of use and rich exposure latitude. Alternatively, Foma 100 is also great and will give you a bit more contrast and a grainier look.
