Depends on the lens and lens design and won't probably be on a ZOOM ever. Usually its the gold band on a nikon ED lens that sits behind the aperture ring. On my little Zeiss lens its the focal distance designator etched into the lens. On my Mamiya lenes there is non but its usually very close to the aperture ring. On my large format lenses is just usually the lens board. On a modern small format that is tele centric god only knows you have to solve. I don't own any.
