    Overview

    The Minolta MD 24-35mm f/3.5 is a compact, lightweight zoom (289g) that offers convenience and sharpness comparable to primes. Its close minimum focus distance (0.3m) is a plus. However, it is rarely mentioned and can be hard to find. The lens shows good resolution across the range, with some field curvature at close distances. It suits photographers wanting a small, high-quality wide-angle zoom for film or adapted digital use, though wide-angle composition may require practice.
