The part of this Minolta lens series that catches my attention is the grip design of the focusing ring.
Everyone has a different sense of design, but I like it.
The triangles line up beautifully when viewed from an angle.
The orange color of the 50mm focal length lettering adds a nice touch.
Start your vintage camera life with the lens design of your choice!
