Blue, enjoyed this series with the 180/2.5. You are putting this rare lens to good use.

It was a lot of fun using that lens at the game. It handles very well. It was a bit heavy for the K200d and I wish I had taken the K20d with grip. I decided that since it was a night game to go with the 180mm instead of the DA 55-300mm.

Edit: The following group of mini-series with the 180mm 63B have no PP other than extraction and resizing for the web. I was also using the factory focusing screen in the K200d.

Coach Terry Bowden and his starting QB about 30 seconds before kickoff.

I posted this one over on the film forum, but figured it wouldn't hurt to plug the lens here.

I was planning on selling the 60-300mm lens, and went out with my brother to look at some land and take some shots. Now I'm not so sure anymore...

IMO, This Adaptall-2 zoom lens is the best bang for the buck!

Tamron Adaptall-2 80-210mm 103A

Hope this works - first time I have tried to post pictures

Both taken at 210mm. Better than my primes at this length.

I'll second that, the 80-210mm 103A is a great bargain. As sharp as my SMC-F 70-210/f4-5.6. Although the 103A shows worse CAs when compared to the F-70-210.

103A shots below are ISO 3200 FYI.
