Yes I have both too - the two ring as a Vivitar on a Konica mount, the single on a Canon bayonet mount.
Both are excellent, I just wish I had one I could hook up to one of the digital SLR's I have, but the easiest for those are M42, or K mount...

I have one coming & wonder which model you prefer, as I have the option of buying the other.
Anyone else with an opinion?

I have the two ring one only.
I understand from others who have both that the one-ring version is a bit better.
Personally I like the two rings because that one ring always confuses me. Thats pure personal preseference though, I am quite primitive in general.

Both are good. I prefer my "two touch" one for close work and the "one touch" for longer shots and portraits. Not that one is that much greater than the other. Actually they are both quite exceptional. I think you'll like yours.

Well I have the 2 touch (No 22) + matching multiplier and it is very good, the multiplier is VG on some other lenses, but on mine if I was to offer some criticism it would be that it doesn't seem as sharp at 150mm.....I also once had the Kiron one touch which is similar to the Vivitar and that was VG as well.

Thanks guys.
I understand the two touch (what I have coming) is a bit heavier than the one touch & weight is a big factor on my G1.
