Wide Angle Lens - MC/MD Mount

[Bertie]

Hi guys,

As it says really, im looking for a wide angle lens to go with my Rokkor 50mm f1.4 and Rokkor 80-200mm f4.5.

Would like to not break the bank say £60 tops.

Any suggestions?

Are there any Celtic MD mounts available. Celtic was the budget Minolta MD lenses back in the day.

There are a few cheap Celtics out there, do you know why they are so cheap?

And thats a good find unfortunately its from america :/ So shipping is pretty high

Or you could push the boat out and try and find a 24mm lens... I picked a Sigma 24mm F/2.8 in my local LCE for £25, it's the same as this one
