RE: [OM] Vivitar 200/3 was: 200/4 -vs- 200/5?

[Skip Williams]

I nabbed my Vivitar S1 200/3 from a German EBay auction for <$100 2 months 
ago.  The display showed the price in DM (which was around Dm250); so I 
think many people thought it was too expensive <gg>.  Most are $2-300.  The 
mount changes the price.  Most seem to appear in the Pentax M42 mount for 
some reason.
