Slug and Company,
Please add the following lens to the camera database:
Minolta 50mm f/1.4 AF New - 1998 (photos of this lens sent by e-mail to
cameras@pbase.com)
Additionally, please add the release years to the following Minolta lenses that are already in the camera database:
Minolta 20mm f/2.8 AF - 1986 (FYI - The thumbnail photo for this lens is incorrect but when you click it the larger version is correct.)
Minolta 24mm f/2.8 AF - 1985
Minolta 28mm f/2.8 AF - 1985
Minolta 50mm f/1.7 AF - 1985
Minolta 50mm f/2.8 AF Macro I - 1985 (FYI - the photo of this lens in the db is the newer version released in 1993)
Minolta 135mm f/2.8 AF - 1985
Minolta 24-50mm f/4 AF - 1987
Minolta 28-105mm f/3.5-4.5 AF I - 1994
Minolta 28-105mm f/3.5-4.5 AF XI - 1991
All this data can be confirmed at the following website that I used for my research. Additionally, it has a full list of all Minolta AF lenses ever released that could be used to complete that portion of your db. It also has photos of all the lenses.

Additionally, the # of users for each individual piece of equipment in the camera database does not seem to be updating even though the number of images taken with that equipment is. Several items, both cameras and lenses, that I watch have been stuck at the same number of users for over 2 months now even though I know for a fact that new users have been posting images taken with this equipment. Just thought I would mention that in case you good folks had not noticed it.
Thanks.
