I collect old cameras which mostly do not have lenses attached but sometimes do. When they do have lenses they are often cheap after-market lenses and nothing to write home about.
Yesterday, I took delivery of a Nikon EM SLR which had a Vivitar lens attached. I took no notice of the lens when I bought the camera but it turns out to be a Kiron 70-150 f/3.8 lens, marketed as a Vivitar, from around 1980. Interweb reviews of this lens suggest it is a fine lens. I don't have a digital Nikon to try it out on so I shall have to wait on my test film to find out just how good.
