If you do a Google search on Mark Roberts Vivitar the first actual, (not advert.) result is this page... http://www.robertstech.com/vivitar.htm I'd buy Mark's copy but I've already got my own. It's the last third party lens I'd part with as long as I'm shooting Pentax. On 1/25/2014 8:20

Clearing out space and putting away pennies for future purchases. This is the third and best version of the 70-210 Vivitar Series 1. It's in Pentax KA mount, so no Green Button metering necessary. Gets up to 1:2.5 magnification in macro mode and is very sharp. Includes original Vivitar front lens
