Rent NowThe Vivitar 28mm f/2.8 MC is a manual focus wide-angle prime lens produced for Olympus’s OM-mount SLR system. At 28mm with an f/2.8 maximum aperture, it delivers a moderate wide-angle field of view well suited to landscape, architecture, interior, street, and environmental photography, with useful light gathering capability for shooting in lower light conditions. The MC designation indicates multi-coating applied to the optical elements, intended to reduce flare and ghosting and improve contrast and color transmission compared to uncoated or single-coated alternatives. Fully manual operation covers both focus and aperture adjustment directly on the lens. Vivitar was a well-known third-party lens brand active during the film SLR era, producing a wide range of alternative optics across multiple mount systems at accessible price points. Compatible with Olympus OM-mount film SLR bodies, and adaptable to mirrorless and other camera systems via third-party OM-mount adapters.
