Let me get this straight.  This lens is a 28mm f/2.8 with a 67mm filter 
ring????  What the heck were those boys smoking when they
designed that one?  Or maybe in 1972, Dilbert's manager approached the 
designers like this:

"We have some parts lying around that we need to use up.  If we put a big front 
on a modest lens will it look more impressive?  The
machine shop has a surplus of 67mm rings from our canceled contracts with 
Howitzer......"


The Zuiko 28/2.8 is what?  49mm?  I know my 3.5 was.

T. Scales offered,
>>Vivitar 28 f/2.8. Clear glass, no oil, etc.  Missing the rubber focusing
ring (also a surprise). No caps, but does include a 67mm Vivitar UV filter.
Also includes a big rubber hood that has a tear that needs some black
electrical tape. Engraved.

$12
