Details: Vivitar 35-85mm f2.8 Series 1 VMC Auto Variable Focusing AI

Manual focus standard zoom lens made for Nikon F mount 35mm SLRs by Vivitar. It is a variable focus lens, meaning it must be refocused every time the zoom is used. This sacrifice was made to enable better optical quality and faster apertures than most zoom lenses at the time. It has the bunny ear metering prongs and AI ridge, so it will meter properly on all manual Nikon cameras. Metal body available in black.
