Well I just picked up the Vivitar S1, (third version), that I sent out
for repair at the post office. It seems to be working exactly as it did
before it's unfortunate accident.
Unfortunately that lens has always been a bit wonky as far a metering is
concerned. I sometimes get the feeling that Vivitar only slapped an A
mount on it and didn't change the way the aperture mechanism worked to
match the Pentax A standard. However it only cost a nominal amount to
get the aperture lever working again, so I'm pretty happy.
I guess I'll post a few sample pics as soon as I see something I think
is worth photographing.
