The third version, the f/2.8-4.0, is the one I have and it is quite good lens. It seems to be very under-rated too from what I've read on Bob Monahagn's website (http://people.smu.edu/rmonagha/third/cult.html#steve). I suppose that is because of the variable aperture perhaps. In any event, there is a good discussion of the Vivitar Series 1's lens and this web site gives a nice history of them.....Anyone know where I SR1 200/3.0? :)
