Description

The Vivitar Series 1 70-210mm f/2.8-4 VMC Macro Focusing Zoom lens was designed for and marketed by Ponder & Best (later Vivitar) in the 1970s. This was the fourth version of the Series 1 70-210mm zoom design (some consider it the fourth and fifth versions - see note below on the Q-dos variant).

Variants

  • Q-dos 3-Dimensional Lens System version. This lens is identical to usual model but with badging and support for Q-dos, a stereo anaglyph system developed by Vivitar. The lens included a switch that would optionally insert a half cyan, half red filter internally. The resulting image exhibited a limited 3D effect that could be viewed through conventional red/cyan 3D glasses.
  • There were versions of this lens with both 58mm and 62mm filter threads. The original models were 58mm but later models had 62mm threads.
  • A gold-plated brass version of the lens was manufactured in a limited run for the Vivitar Series 1 50th Anniversary Lens Set which was given to Vivitar officials and dealers.
