Hey all. I recently purchased my first 35mm SLR: a Minolta X700 with a 50mm f/2.0 lens. From looking around the office where I work, we had a box of old camera things that had been donated to us that were basically free for anyone to take. I dug around a little bit and found a Minolta auto film winder and a Vivitar Series 1 24-48 lens. The lens "works" in the sense that I can attach it to the body, focus, adjust the aperture, and take pictures. I notice, though, that the camera is stuck on a focal length of about 36mm. Am I supposed to be able to zoom with this lens? It says "Auto Zoom" on the front of it, but I have no idea how that works. Thanks in advance!
