    Overview

    The Minolta AF 28-105mm f/3.5-4.5 is a versatile standard zoom for A-mount, praised for its sharpness and compact build. Optical strengths include good sharpness across the range, while weaknesses are not highlighted in the excerpts. Build quality is solid, with a non-rotating filter ring and seven-blade aperture. It suits film and digital shooters seeking a lightweight, affordable walk-around lens, though the xi version is less recommended. Dyxum gives the later non-xi versions good marks.
