Hi, Peter.

>> I just received from KEH a brand new/old toy.  The Vivitar
>> 35-85mm f2.8 vari-focal in "Bargain" condition.

> It's the Series 1, just in case anyone cares...

Congratulations on your New Toy.  It's a fun lens.

>> I've mounted it on an LX and I'm off to take some photos.

So it looks like

>> All I need now is the dedicated lens hood.

And you do want to use a hood on this lens - it's wide-open front is
vulnerable to flare, probably its worst feature.  (But it's got a
lot of ~good~ features, too...)
