I know I'm not supposed to buy lens right now with my money issue but the Promaster Spectrum7 is calling my name. I don't shoot much in that range but I want to add a manual lens of this range in my bag to learn a few things about photography. So PM is sent for that.

*kenhreed* · 09-09-2009, 09:46 PM

Is the 400mm still available?

*Andi Lo* · 09-09-2009, 10:43 PM

Hmm Hin you said that the 80-200 isn't that sharp at 2.8 but that one photo you posted seem mighty sharp for me at web resolutions.... I'm a bit tempted. When I have the money I'll take it

*jax_zee* · 09-10-2009, 12:01 AM

I have an interest in that "bigma" Quantaray 400mm f/6.3 in K mount ($45 + shipping) if shipping doesn't exceed the selling price

*dycz* · 09-10-2009, 12:23 AM

Hi hin.. hope you consider shipping internationally.... I really like the tokina ATX.. I'll add +$10 so its 225+10=235 + shipping.. hope you consider.

It is not autofocus but manual focus with 'A' aperture. Please PM me if you still have interest. I will try to post product pictures as soon as I find the time. If you want to see the pictures, please PM me first and I will point you to pictures from previous owner.

The lens is pretty good for the price. I find it soft at wide open aperture especially in the long end in 200mm initially. It is a heavy lens and softness can come from user errors in hand-holding. Once I use a tripod and consciously stop down when I can, the lens perform better than expected. At f/2.8, I still consider it soft but quite usable when I try it in indoor dim light on circus and baseball

Here is a picture of Kate Earl performing live music, I had both the DA* 50-135mm and the Tokina AT-X 80-200mm and I opted for the later due to longer reach for the musician

Music with Kate Earl

All shot with Tokina AT-X 80-200mm f/2.8 mostly in 180mm, f/6.3, iso 200

I need to sell due to wanting to upgrade to either a Sigma 70-200 f/2.8 with HSM or Tamron 70-200mm f/2.8 for helping my friend with soccer games.

Thanks,
Hin
