Very unlikely it's a Kino-manufactured lens. I believe they terminated their relationship well before 1990. Tokina? Komine? Even Samyang/Phoenix is possible, based on similarities. Haven't been able to find any more definitive info on the web.

Lex, I bought my Viv 70-210 (OM mount), brand new, in Singapore in
1993...any idea about which company might have actually made it, given (IMHO) the poor QC?
