I need experience about this lens. Some what uncommon I think. Vivitar has many other 400/5.6.

Vivitar 400mm f5.6 Auto Telephoto.
8 elements in 5 groups. in TX mount. filter Ø72mm.
serial# 37904541.

Who made it? any good?
Thanks.

the serial starting with 37 should be Tokina as manufacturer of this lens

it looks like it could be a Tokina SL 400mm F5.6 SD / Tokina RMC 400mm F5.6

Looks like the late, internal focus model. I think I have this lens, somewhere!
