This lens has the nickname of the beercan because it looks so similar to a tallboy. The lens is a fixed f4 throughout its focal length. The lens has a small spot on the from glass where the coating appears to have rubbed off, this has absolutely no effect on the image quality. The lens comes with the Minolta front cap and a Sony rear cap. The lens is in excellent condition. I included a couple of photos that I took with this lens at the zoo. One of the things that I like most about Minolta lenses are the colors that the lenses produce. I am firm on the asking price of $90, I can take a credit card for payment (PayPal). Any questions please feel free to e-mail me.
