I can't find anything on line, except some HQ 500mm lenses and binoculars for sale. I just bought a new, in the box, 35-70mm, two touch, f3.5/4.5 multi-coated zoom for $8. The Montgomery Ward price tag says "$99.99". It looks well made. All metal. Since it had a Minolta MD mount it was probably made around 1980. The only marking on the lens -- other than the serial # -- is "LENS MADE IN KOREA". Any ideas who might have made it?
