Vivitar 28mm f1.9 Series 1 VMC Auto Lens for Nikon F

The Vivitar 28mm f/1.9 Series 1 VMC Auto is a manual focus wide-angle prime lens produced for Nikon’s F-mount SLR system. At 28mm with an f/1.9 maximum aperture, it delivers a moderate wide-angle field of view well suited to street, documentary, environmental portraiture, and low-light photography, with strong light gathering capability that is notably fast for a wide-angle prime of this focal length. The VMC designation indicates multi-coating applied to the optical elements to reduce flare and ghosting and improve contrast and color transmission, and the Series 1 designation indicates Vivitar’s higher tier of optical specifications within their lens lineup. The Auto designation confirms an automatic aperture mechanism that stops down to the set aperture only at the moment of exposure. Fully manual focus operation covers focus adjustment directly on the lens. Compatible with Nikon F-mount film and digital SLR bodies, and adaptable to mirrorless systems via appropriate F-mount adapters.
