Vivitar MC Macro Focusing Zoom 28-70mm F3.4 or F3.5-4.8
This copy was very close to new. Original box and packing. Maybe why no zoom creep on a lens noted for same.
I use the Fuji X-E1 camera and I was looking for a quality light weight legacy full frame zoom for to use in APS-C format for a light weight carry-around to travel with a (sharp) M42 Zeiss Jena 24mm (155 grams) on Speed Booster. When I don't want to carry a full range of Topcor lenses this arrangement gives me a 26mm plus a 43-105mm focal length. The all up camera/lens weight with this range of focal lengths comes in at 1150 grams (2 lb. 8 oz.). Perfect for light carry.
I tested the 28-70 (as a 43mm to 105mm) out in the garden (first try out). Very close in. f5.6. slight crop in PP.
