Thanks arsn ... it's a great capture that I think many here will appreciate ... Salut, J

Just FYI ... yes, I know from personal experience that they have a horrible reputation, but it's kinda of "fun" to see what comes across their shelves ... Salut, J

I saw many great photos in this thread from both versions of 90/2,5 (including latest from arsn.r3d - really beautifull). Could someone post an image from this lens at infinity wide open or close to wide open? I'm thinking about buying one but to "justify" my LBA I want to check how good it is as a fast prime for general use.
Best regards,
Piotr

Just FYI ... I have been looking for one and will be bidding up to a certain limit ... I have no hopes of winning it within the limits of my "hobby" budget, but it will be interesting to see for how much it sells

I have just acquired the 47A. This is the 70-210mm with built in autofocus. I haven't got the AF working yet - I need to clean the battery contacts and hopefully that will fix it..also the aperture seems a bit iffy. I took a few snaps anyway, seems quite good optically, certainly on a par with other adaptall TP's.

One question perhaps my fellow adaptall enthusiasts can help with. There is a switch on the top, seperate from the MF-AF switch. 3 positions: S - off - C (this is visible in the pics posted in the lens review section). Am I right in thinking this would be Single - off - Continuous?

Yeah, single and continuous. At least that's what I've read.

Thanks for the stats; prices way out of my ballpark at the moment, unless I sell to pump up the PayPal account ... A+, J

(A+ = "à plus" = short form of "à plus tard" ... today's free French slang lesson

First (really?) test shot from Pentax K-3 with adaptall mount lens (01A).

**Jean Poitiers** · 11-22-2013, 11:14 AM

New addition : 55BB + 01F + Nikon mount + case ... all in very good shape, but some very minor filaments in lens that I do not think will effect the IQ ... this is the one I wrote about earlier ... it disappeared from "Le bon coin" site and then came back a few weeks later ... got a good deal on it and I'm a happy camper, J (Xpost)
