Agreed. I see the Vivitar 75-205 often. In fact, if someone wants one in 9
condition without scratches on the glass, I could get one for $89 w/o 2X
converter.
I have a Vivitar 28-85mm f/3.5~4.5 in 9+ condition, with perfect glass and
mechanics. Obviously in OM Mount. Not a Series 1. First $59 takes it.
Reach me offline, please.
