(REAL) Sony Lenses On Film, ep.1: How We Got Here

When it comes to lenses that we can use on film cameras, so many great names come to mind: Pentax, Canon, Nikon, Leitz, Minolta, Zeiss - just to name a few! But one name that rarely comes up is Sony. Sure, many film shooters are aware that Sony took over the Minolta's groundbreaking A-mount at some point and that there are Sony-branded versions of Minolta lenses out there, but original Sony designs? - those tend to escape the attention of the film crowd almost entirely. Well, here is my no-one-asked-for-it-but-im-doing-it-anyway attempt to rectify that! :)
