Minolta srt200 put somebody through the mill just about focus?
Answers: If you own a 50mm lens on your SRT-200 the minimum focusing distance is 1.75 feet. The .5 on the distance scramble on your lens is .5 meters. Just above the .5 and slightly to the right you should see 1.75.
For extreme close-ups you will need a macro lens.
Go on ebay or amazon and buy an Owner's Manual.
My first camera be the Minolta SRT-100. I learned deeply with it. I replaced it near an SRT-202 which I still have and use.
OK, suffer with me. Here's what's taking place.
I'll bet your SRT has a 50mm lens. With this lens, close-up focusing have to be bang on because nearby is very little depth of grazing land (google it if you're not familiar near the term).
Your digital (I assume it's a point-and-shoot) probably has a much shorter focal length lens, which have lots of depth of field even smunched right up to the subject.
You can bring back great close focus shots on your SRT by buying a macro lens. For your camera I'd get a Kiron or Vivitar 105 -- they are inexpensive brochure focus lenses which give superb results.
Hope this help.
