Pentax K 85-210 f3.5 or Tamron Adaptall-2 SP 80-200mm f2.8

**rajubhai55** · 04-10-2011, 06:30 PM

I have two zoom lens in same range Pentax K 85-210 f3.5 and Tamron Adaptall-2 SP 80-200mm f2.8.

I carried out tests on these two zoom lens to determine which is better. I found that sharpness and color wise they are very very close to each other.

I thinking of selling the Pentax K 85-210mm f 3.5 lens since the tamron is slightly faster and I can use PKA adaptor to get A functionality.

Can somebody give me idea how much is the Pentax K 85-210 f 3.5 lens worth. I do not have close focus adaptor lens but the lens itself is in very good condition with minimal signs of usage.

I believe the Pentax K 85/210 F3.5, as distinct from the more common "F4.5" version, would be quite rare.
Cheers, Pickles.
