This Cheap Wide Angle Lens is one of the FASTEST 28mm Ever Made

The Cheap Weird Lens Challenge continues, today we will use a The Vivitar 28mm f1.9 The Vivitar 28mm F1.9 was sold in the 70's for 1000$... i bought it for 20! this lens is pretty hard to find but it's a fantastic piece. I took it with me on a trip to Sweden for a review, and i really liked the results. At f1.9 it's the fastest 28mm wide angle lens ever made, the only other brand to have produced an equivalent was the Voigtländer Ultron 28mm f/1.9 that costed way more thant this one. having the possibility to open the diaphragm so wide make shooting in low light and creating environmental portraits a pleasure.

I paid 20 euros for it but price can be higher right now as it's a rare lens.

 

here are some of the Photo taken with it
