Description from the seller
"Minolta MC FISH-EYE ROKKOR 16mm F2.8
Serial Number: 1643237
Thank you for visiting my listing, and thank you for your interest in this item.
The Minolta MC FISH-EYE ROKKOR 16mm F2.8 is a distinctive manual-focus fisheye lens with an extremely wide 180° diagonal angle of view and built-in color filters selected from the lens barrel. Its dramatic perspective makes it especially interesting for creative landscapes, architecture, interiors and other compositions where an expansive fisheye effect is desired.
This lens has been carefully inspected and tested in Japan. It is a hard-to-find example in unusually clean storage condition for its age.
■ Appearance
The exterior is very clean overall and gives the impression of having been carefully stored.
Please review the photos carefully for the detailed cosmetic condition.
■ Lens / Optics
There are only a few fine dust particles in the main optics, and overall the lens remains clear.
Please note that the built-in yellow color filter has a small amount of haze.
Please review the photos carefully for the detailed optical condition.
■ Functional
The main functions have been checked and are working properly. The lens is ready for normal use.
■ Included Items
Only the items shown in the photos are included. Please refer to the photos for exactly what is included.
■ Shipping
Shipped from Japan by Japan Post International Air Packet with tracking, to the Catawiki registered address only.
I cannot ship to Russia.
Delivery to Italy may take longer due to local postal procedures.
■ Payment
Ships within 3 business days after payment is confirmed.
■ International Buyers – Please Note
This item is shipped from Japan. Import duties, taxes, VAT and customs charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost and are the buyer's responsibility.

Thank you very much for viewing my listing. I hope the next owner will enjoy the distinctive rendering and character of this Minolta fisheye lens."
