Tamron Adaptall II Lens enquiry.
      #792750 - 15/05/2009 12:22

Hello,

I'm thinking of buying a secondhand Macro Lens to use on my P30t and my K10D and wondered if anyone had tried a Tamron 90mm Adaptal II Macro Lens on a K10D.

Best Regards,

Yecora99

No, sorry. I have the Pentax 100mm f/4. I can certainly recommend this though.

A highly regarded lens, I've used mine on my *ist D and DS. Unfortunately, the prices for the PKA mount have gone through the roof, but you can use a PK mount and press the green button for stop down metering. It's worth looking out for any Adaptall-2 lens with the mount included, and cameras sold with a few lenses -- you may be able to get a pile of gear for less than the going rate for the mount by itself.

Opps! That should be Pentax 100mm F2.8 macro, sorry.
