New Vivitar Series I 75-210mm Zoom
Does anybody know anything about the new Vivitar Series I 75-210mm
zoom lens?  It sounds like it is everything I have ever wanted in
a zoom, and I have seen it listed for around $200!!!!  Wow!!!!

I'm still looking for one.  Is the focusing really continuous
even during the switch to macro range?  And I hope that you are not
limited to using macro only at one focal length.  I have not
bought a macro lens yet because invariably I will want to
focus on something (probably moving) right at the transition between
normal focus and macro...What a pain.

                                       Still waiting for the perfect lens
