Hi guys...
I haven't been able to post for awhile because I don't have a computer at
the moment. But I have a few moments now to let you know of my new toy. I
just picked up a Vivitar 70-210mm f2.8 constant aperture with macro to 2.5
life size. I picked it up for $30 AUS (Approx $18 US) without a warranty
from Cash Converters. It had some fungus on one of the elements, so after
some careful dismantling and cleaning and drying, I have put it backed
together and now have a very reasonable lens!
My question thou is that it has terrible zoom creep! Is there any way to
stop this or slow it down.
Also it has a switch that is marked Q-DOS (I think!) that flips down half a
blue and red filter inside and gives a bizarre look especially between the
focal lengths of 135-210. Does anyone know what this is for??
Thanks in advance
Adam
