The grip is a HorusBennu grip attached to a Manfrotto 200PL style quick
release plate, a special plate made by HorusBennu for their grips. It
allows you to use the camera, with the grip attached, on a Manfrotto
RC2 Rapid Connect Adapter.

Closest focus is only 31cm from
outermost
edge of the lens, F 8. Focus on
the program wheel of the camera.
Already wide open
picture sharpness is fine, just a bit of colour cast at F 2.5. Stopped
down it's really good and very contrasty, nearly surreal. Have a look at the full resolution image
at F 8 or F 22. At F32 there is a little bit
of diffraction. Diffraction is a problem of the sensor size,
not the
lens (see A6000 comparison page). The lens has good close
focussing
capablities.
Konica AR lenses are 40.5mm FFD. This is shorter than most of the
others, except M39. So the adapters are shorter as well. On top of
this, AR lenses are very compact. It's a small and very sturdy
lens, it is not lightweight and
it is cheap. A
good lens with one stop more than average 28mm.
