I would love to buy this lens from you, but don't have the $... Good luck and hope it will be in a great home soon

Interesting lens you've got there. Is it possible to use this with a TC? I guess it should be possible -in theory at least- to attach the m42 adaptor to a Sigma 1.4 APO TC for example.

Best regards,

Admittedly, I have no TC to confirm this, but it would seem that with the adaptor attached, it should just be like an old K mount. I'd feel safe to say it should work. 700mm, thats reach for ya.

Thanks for the info. I am still interested

I'll try to fish for some user experiences with the lens + TC combo before deciding though.

Best regards,

I can't believe this is still around. But sounds like it might be selling soon. I'd love to pick it up, but I'd want it for travel/wildlife, only I can't fathom carrying any more equipment with me. Also, I've already spent way more than I can justify or ever intended...
