Equipment Model: 70-210 Macro Zoom-M42 mount
Price (S$): $180
Description:
Vivitar 70-210 Macro Zoom - M42 mount Kiron version
Usual light user marks, lens is clean from fungus, light dust within the lens.
In 1975 Vivitar introduced the "Series 1" line of lenses. They were intended to compete with the best offerings of the major camera manufacturers, albeit at a very high price -- they were quite expensive even by OEM standards. Nonetheless, discriminating photographers who could afford the price snapped them up and they are still much sought-after by photographers willing to give up auto focus in return for top quality optics, construction and versatility.
The most famous of the Series One lenses was the 70-210 macro zoom. One of the first zooms to offer any kind of macro capability, it offered outstanding optics in a highly versatile package. There were several versions produced over the years, the first three of which are still very desirable lenses. The last two manual focus versions are of poorer optical quality and are aren't really comparable to the earlier versions.
