Hi Paul,
I've used the AF version of the Vivitar on a Minolta. The results were
quite good - surprising for its price and rather unsubstantial feel. As
you probably know, the Vivitar is a favorite of Herbert Keppler from
Popular Photography.
As part of a trade, I've ended up with a New Sigma 90mm/f2.8 Macro for
Olympus. It's a much more substantial lens than the Vivitar; It's
faster; and, I'd be happy to offer you an attractive price on it.
Regards,
-Bob-
