Actualy the Vivitar lens on the table was a 100mm/2,8. Vivitar had sold
a 90mm/2,5 lens, able to go to 1:1 without adapter, too, it´s the same
lens than the Elicar Macro 90mm/2,5 lens. The Elicar was tested in the
same lens test, but I didn´t include it in the table because the lens
performance was so bad.
