Description:
This review page is for the Komine made versions of the vivitar 135mm f2.8. These came in both 4-element and 5-element versions that look exactly the same. The earlier 5-element came in 2 versions - The 5-element 'milled metal grip' V3 was made from 1971(?) to 1974. The 5-element 'rubber grip' V4 was made 1974-76. Both have an 8-blade aperture. The similar-looking 4-element V5 was made 1976-82 and has a 6-blade aperture. (There) ...is a 5-element V4 S/N 2860xxx. Optical diagrams in .a.t. 's review below.
Note that the "close focus" 135mm f2.8, also made by Komine, is reviewed here.
