I picked up this lens with an SRT100X.

It seems to be a first generation 50mm F/2 but I only see ones with Rokkor on the lens have either P or X alongside it; this one doesn't.

Any info you can provide is appreciated.

Thanks.

There are a few varieties of the 50mm f/2.0 lens shown on this page:

http://minolta.rokkor.de/normallenses.htm#50mm%202.0

I have no useful info on it, but this one looks like yours:

"White MD Rokkor lens with 55 mm filter diameter. Some weight savings by plastic parts"

It certainly does look like that one. I'll read through the link, thanks.
