Vivitar 85-205mm f/3.8 Lens for OM Mount

The Vivitar 85-205mm f/3.8 is a classic manual focus telephoto zoom lens built with an Olympus OM bayonet mount. Featuring a constant maximum aperture of f/3.8 across the entire focal range, it offers smooth bokeh and consistent light transmission throughout zooming. Constructed with a heavy-duty all-metal barrel, integrated retractable lens hood, and a tactile push-pull zoom ring design, this lens is designed for use on vintage 35mm film SLR cameras like the Olympus OM-1, OM-2, and OM-10, or adapted to modern mirrorless digital camera bodies.
