Minolta 45mm f/2.8 Super Rokkor

The Minolta 45mm f/2.8 Super Rokkor is a compact normal-focal-length lens from Minolta's early postwar rangefinder era, designed for use on Leica thread-mount (L39) bodies and Minolta's own 35mm rangefinder cameras. Its moderately fast f/2.8 aperture and slightly wide-of-normal 45mm focal length made it a general-purpose optic for reportage and everyday shooting.

Reliable UK auction data for this lens is thin, but a recorded saleroom result from March 2023 shows the Super Rokkor selling for £88 at hammer (wholesale level, before buyer's premium). On that single data point the price, value and median sit at the same figure, so as of today in 2026 buyers asking what a 45mm Super Rokkor is worth should treat the high-£80s as a baseline for an average example sold at auction, with cleaner copies likely to fetch more.
