Minolta SR-T 101 - MC Rokkor Lenses

MC Rokkor Lenses

The range of Rokkor lenses became quite extensive and included highly respected designs like the Macro Rokkor-QF 1:3.5 f=50mm and the extremely rare MC Rokkor-PF 1:2 f=100mm. A new line of Rokkor lenses were launched with the camera featuring the MC full-aperture metering:

• MC W.Rokkor-SG 1:3.5 f=28mm (67mm filter)
• MC W.Rokkor-HG 1:2.8 f=35mm
• MC Rokkor-PF 1:1.7 f=55mm (new) (52mm filter)
• MC Rokkor-PF 1:1.4 f=58mm
• MC Tele Rokkor-PF 1:2 f=100mm (62mm filter)
• MC Tele Rokkor-QE 1:3.5 f=100mm (52mm filter)
• MC Tele Rokkor-PF 1:2.8 f=135mm
• MC Tele Rokkor-QD 1:3.5 f=135mm (new)
• MC Tele Rokkor-QF 1:3.5 f=200mm

These had 55mm filter threads except where noted. Two new optical designs were introduced in the 55mm 1:1.7 and 135mm 1:3.5; the others were upgrades of the older Auto Rokkor lenses. The SR-T 101 retained compatibility with the earlier lenses with stop-down metering. A range of new MC lenses were introduced between 1966 and 1976, when they were superseded by the MD Rokkor line in 1977.
