andy lee Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Vivitar had a premium line of lenses called 'Series 1' and these tend to command a higher price Vivitar did not actually make/manufacture any lenses they got 3rd party manufacturers to make lenses for them . so if you can get one cheap buy it! Vivitar make a 19-35mm Sereis 1 zoom it is rectalinear and very good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
