Up for sale is a very nice sample of a classic Tokina-made Vivitar Series 1 zoom, the 70-210mm f/3.5  in m42 mount.


Part of Vivitar's pro-grade "Series 1" Line, this is the constant-apertured "V1" version produced by the famed Kiron  Optical corporation, as indicated by its serial number beginning in "22."

Nice vintage condition with light barrel wear. Minor cleaning marks, front coating.  Free of haze/fungus/scratches. Typical light interior dust for push-pull zoom lens. Mechanics in excellent condition, including oil-free aperture. 


This lens features the original version Pentax K mount, which can be used natively on all Pentax K mount SLRs and DSLRs, with mechanically coupled aperture on K mount film cameras. It also can easily be adapted for use on most popular DSLR, and mirrorless formats with an inexpensive adapter ring (sold separately, see chart below for digital compatibility).

If you have any questions about whether this lens is adaptable to your camera system, please contact me before purchase.
