Vectis postal service Vectis postal service The Vectis postal service was a postal service set up during the national postal strike of the United Kingdom in 1971. This was amongst a number of local delivery services which flourished during the strike. The service was set up by a group of Ryde business men, led by R.W.Cawdell, C.C., who acted as head postmaster for the service. It covered an area encompassing the whole of the Isle of Wight. At peak the service handled over 1500 items of mail daily. The national postal strike ended on 8 March 1971, and with it the local service.
Minolta Vectis S series and the flange focal distance of the V-mount is only 36.00 mm. A small hand-production run of an adapter was made for Vectis-to-Sony NEX, but the design was never put into full production. Only an early DSLR camera body, the Minolta Dimâge RD 3000, also used the V-lens mount. The Vectis brand was also shared with a number of small APS rangefinder cameras with fixed lenses, including the waterproof Vectis Weathermatic and Vectis GX series. The model numbers of these cameras don't include the S prefix used for the SLR series. List of V-mount interchangeable lenses: The 17 mm lens
