IRRC the Tokina and Vivitar labeled Tokina were described as being the same
optically (perhaps Larry?) but the Tokina doesn't have the tripod mount on
the adapter.
Adorama has the Vivitar 90mm + adapter for $159. A week or two ago either
Adorama or B&H was selling the Vivitar adapter by itself for about $40 but I
can't find it now.
