Rent NowThe Quantaray 100-300mm f/4.5-6.7 LDO is a versatile telephoto zoom lens designed for the Minolta Alpha (A-mount) system. Covering a powerful focal range, this lens is an affordable entry point for photographers looking to capture distant subjects like wildlife, sports, and compressed landscapes. The “LDO” (Low Dispersion Optics) designation indicates the use of specialized glass designed to help maintain color accuracy and reduce chromatic aberrations.
CONDITION NOTE: This lens is being sold in used condition with notable optical wear. There is internal dust and haze present within the lens elements. This haze will result in a “soft focus” effect and a reduction in overall image contrast, particularly when shooting in bright or backlit environments. It remains mechanically functional and is a great choice for those looking for an affordable telephoto lens for experimental “dreamy” photography or for those comfortable with lens cleaning and repair.
Extended Telephoto Reach
Versatile Zoom Range: From a standard 100mm telephoto to a powerful 300mm “super-telephoto,” this lens allows you to pull far-off subjects into clear view.
Autofocus Performance: Fully compatible with the Minolta Alpha/Sony A-mount autofocus systems, ensuring quick subject acquisition for stationary or slow-moving subjects.
Compact Construction: Despite its long reach, the lens is designed to be relatively lightweight and manageable for handheld shooting during day trips or at the stadium.
Minolta Alpha & Sony Compatibility
A-Mount Native: Designed for Minolta Maxxum and Alpha series film and digital SLR cameras.
Sony DSLR Compatible: This lens also works natively on Sony A-mount DSLRs (like the A100 through A99 II) and can be used on Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras via an appropriate LA-EA series adapter.
Protection Included: This unit comes with front and rear lens caps to protect the outer glass surfaces when not in use.
