Vivitar 70-210 f2.8-4 Series 1 APO vs. Minolta Beercan
[Try #2 - The first attempt was flawed.]
My attempt at science, comparing the Vivitar and Beercan. The pics were all shot within minutes of one another and of the same subjects. I attempted to position myself similarly with both lenses, but obviously was a bit closer to the subject when shooting with the beercan.
All the pics are aperture priority f4 and autofocus. All these pics were taken on my KM 7D with the same settings, except as noted below with regard to exposure. Click here for the EXIF information.
See what you think.

I don't find much to distinguish the results with these two lenses.
