I’m sorry
Because we can’t speak english
I am using DeepL translate, so it may be a strange sentence,
but I would like you to understand
Thank you
I wrote this column because I made a new discovery with Minolta AF lenses.
I will write with reference to the lenses that are on sale at our vintage shop Japan Inc.
Minolta AF ZOOM 24-105mm f/3.5-4.5 D

The minimum focusing distance with a typical autofocus lens is as shown in the image below.
(Reference Nikon AF lenses)

Minolta lenses now display the minimum focusing distance in a window.

I do not know at this point why it has a window.
I would like to investigate whether it is just a zoom lens or a design thing, etc., and make a column about it in the future.
