Hi folks, I'm back.  Moved and had a bunch of surgeries...

I've been lurking for ~ the past month and Bill's question brought me
out of the woods.

Bill, the Series 1 lenses are all quite good.  I owned the 200/3 for
quite a while and really liked the speed and ability to focus closely.
My brother now has the lens and he uses it frequently.

I think the $79, or less, would be a good investment.

Regards,
Brian Huber

Yesterday, I saw a Vivitar Series 1 200/3 lens in a shop. Two questions:

1. Is this lens any good? Monaghan's site speaks well of it, but
sometimes 
he seems a bit over the top...

B. It was marked at $79. I may be able to get it down a bit, but likely
not 
more than about $10. Several years ago, I saw they had a box of NIB
Nikor 
reels, and they wanted current list price and were inflexible. Still got

them.
