Amazon.com Product Description
The Minolta Maxxum AF 24-105mm f3.5 to f4.5 D series zoom lens provides excellent focusing operation and high-quality image results throughout the zooming range. Its aspheric lenses help correct spherical aberration and reduce sagittal flare and coma. The large, petal-type lens hood shields the lens from extraneous light. The unique Minolta circular aperture diaphragm is designed for more natural-looking backgrounds at wider apertures. In combination with the Maxxum 7 camera, the built-in distance encoder on this lens supports highly accurate ADI (Advance Distance Integration) flash metering by providing precise distance information.The Maxxum AF lens series is designed to offer superb operation for both auto and manual focusing. During autofocusing, photographers can hold the camera in good balance and concentrate on framing, thanks to Minolta's Auto Clutch mechanism, which does not rotate the focusing ring during AF drive. In manual focusing, the wide ring rotates smoothly and is easy to control. The overall result is a supercompact lens that produces high-quality images throughout its zooming range.

Best Everyday Lens for Your Sony Alpha DSLR November 30, 2009
Larry D. Nail (St. Louis, MO)
When I bought my Sony Alpha 200 camera, I loved everything about it except the lens that came with it. The 18-70mm takes decent pictures, but it is light and plastic feeling, and the overall zoom length is just not enough. I don't use the wide angle near as much as the telephoto, so it was definitely a bummer of a lens for me. So I went on a hunt to get a good all around everyday lens.... I tried the Minolta 50mm f1.7 and it is great in low light in doors, but not as versatile as a zoom. Most of the normal zoom lenses were 28-85mm, or 28-105mm, etc. Then I found the SONY 24-105mm lens and it looked like just the thing---- till I saw the $549 price tag. I read that the Sony 24-105mm was really a re-release of a "D" series Minolta lens no longer made. All the reviews said that the older Minolta 24-105mm was a solid performer with gorgeous color. That started the hunt for a good copy of the Minolta 24-105mm lens, and I found one that was only 9 months old. THIS IS EVERYDAY LENS YOU WANT FOR A SONY ALPHA. F3.5-4.5 is better than the usual f4-5.6 on most third party normal zoom lenses. THE WIDE ANGLE IS STILL GOOD AT 24MM, BUT THE PORTRAIT LENGTH 105MM (WHICH IS ACTUALLY 152MM IN 35MM PHOTOGRAPHY) IS JUST THE THING TO REACH OUT THAT LITTLE BIT MORE THAN THE STOCK LENS. THE LENS IS COMPACT, AND COMES WITH A PETAL BAYONETTE HOOD. The 62mm filter size is easy to find good filters at a reasonable price. AT $252 THIS WAS THE BEST ADDITION TO MY SONY ALPHA TOOLS. If the 24-105mm Sony ever drops to $250 then I would consider it. This lense has great color, solid feel, no zoom creep. It's Outstanding!
Excellent walk-around lens February 7, 2007

This lens give good shapness and versatility on my KM Maxxum 7D. Not as fast as the 28-75/2.8 but the extra 'length' 105 over 75 is very nice to have. Would recommend this lens.
