On Saturday went down to Toronto (T.O.) and dropped into Henry's Used Store after finding out how empty the pawnshops were
They had a table of bins with sign - Lenses $50 each, 3 for $129.
After much rummaging I came up with 3 -
- Vivitar 28mm close focus wide angle ( I read that it was Komine made, by the SN)
- Sigma Zoom master 35-70mm f2.8~4
- Vivatar 35-200mm Macro Focusing Zoom f3~4.5
(2 had the origial prices on them the zooms the Vivatar originally 249.99, and the Sigma $99)
Also for $60 (full price ) a Vivitar 2X macro focusing teleconverter.
A bonus was that there was also a clearance bin so for $5 each I picked up
- a Magnicon (?) 35-70 f 3.5~4 zoom (I read that it might be a rebadged Tokina)
- an Ultra (?) zoom 80-200mm f4.5 , This one is interesting because,
I think it was an old Tokina as it has the double ring with f-stops (like my Tokina SD)
And it has a seperate ring with a button that you depress to go from normal to macro
At $5 each I thought these two would interesting to play with.
So if anyone has any neat info on these I'm all ears (or is that eyes because its written down? )
Later I'll post pics of these acquisitions,
