Henning, I believe it was Kiron who made the original Vivitar Series 1 lenses. My all time favourite is the 35-85/2.8 Vari-focal. I like it so much that I got a M42 one to use on my EOS. The current Series 1 lenses are made by Cosina, and you will find the same lenses offered in other brands, namely Tokina, Phoenix, and perhaps a few others. Best regards, Joseph
