Camera: Fujifilm X-A10 with Vivitar 70-150mm f3.8 close focusing auto zoom lens using Fotodiox Pro FD-FX adapter.
This manual focus lens is from 1976 and is in excellent condition inside and out. Some of its most impressive features are the 15 elements in 10 groups, f3.8 to f22 aperture range, multicoated lens surfaces, and 16 inches minimum focusing distance at close focusing setting.
Length 112mm
Weight 550g
Mount Canon FD breech mount
This compact lens impresses with its ease of use and remarkable clarity and contrast. It’s relatively fast at f3.8. With the proper adapter for hybrid digital photography, it’s a clear winner.

I have one of them in Konica AR mount, Chris – part of an outfit a nephew passed on to me. It looks like it’s not been used.

Hey John. They’re a well-designed lens especially given when they were built. I enjoy using mine.
