Showcase Vivitar 70-210mm f3.5 Series 1 FD

Looks good! Is it a pull zoom?

 

Vivitar 70-210 adapter?

Hi

Thanks for the pics. I have that lens and always liked it, though mine is a bit sticky sliding. What adapter did you use for this?

Thanks!

Cynthia

 

Panasonic G1 & Kiron version of the 70-210mm lens

 

See here for images from the slightly later version of this lens.

 

Picked up the first (Kiron) version at a thrift last week. Heavy beast! No way to tripod mount it, so a couple of hand-held shots. Stopped down a bit, about f/5.6 IIRC, at 210mm on the E-P2.

 

Mi first photos

I love this lens, it's Minolta mount

I took mine out this morning for some landscape. Works well enough, but is challenging to handle. The E-M1 makes it a little easier than say an E-P5 or E-M5.
