The 10-17mm can be improved by shaving off the lens hood.
Shine a flashlight through the viewfinder to see how much needs to come off.
Alternatively remove it all or send it to Germany for a pro job.

Comment by Algernon posted on Wondering what the field of view of the DA lenses is on the K-1? at 01/05/2016 - 16:05
Sony still have the old Minolta mount lenses which they are promising to support. The A99 is supposed to be out of production this summer. The replacement(s) could include a DSLR although no one has suggested that.
The A6300 (APS-C) doesn't have in body SR making it pretty useless for old lenses. So not aimed at the DSLR market.

Probably online sales only.

I was confused by that I wouldn't think many K20D's are still being pre-ordered and that the camera is now quite well established

These are better than I expected and at last the 43mm can show how good it is.

Not AF but I've still got a Vivitar Series 1 28-105mm from the 1980's f/2.8 - f/3.8 with a 67mm filter. There were two versions. I'm not sure what spec.the other one was. There was also a Gold plated version made by Cosina.
I've also got a similar (possibly better) Kiron version f/3.2 - f/4.5 67mm filter with Macro to 1:4.

That's a fantastic piece of documentary photography and a valuable record for years to come. It shows the short term pain for people living and working around the site and the long term benefit for the people of London.
Have you followed this from the start of the project? If so you have the material for a fascinating exhibition when its all completed.

Photography on building sites is usually forbidden (fear of prosecution). I suppose they would have a difficult job stopping you from a public area, but be careful you don't go too close....... you might fall into a concrete skip
