I have for sale a very fine Tamron SP 80-200/2.8. It uses the adaptall-2 mount, and a KA adapter is included. This will permit just about all shooting functions on Pentax DSLRs except AF and automatic SR (input the focal length by hand).
(I added a spacer in the aperture lever because it was causing overexposure otherwise The dust on the TC is on the outside of the clear plastic cap).
It is in excellent condition, used of course. Nothing special to note optically or cosmetically other than it's an outstanding lens that I'm upgrading thanks to another forum member.
This sample photo doesn't say much but I thought I'd include it. I can provide more samples on demand.

I am also including the matched adaptall-2 2x TC. This will make it a 160-400/5.6 with a KA mount. Because it is matched, it performs excellently. It comes with a case and special caps.
Here is a size comparison with the Pentax FA31:
This is a favourable report on it vs the equivalent Tokina:
Tamron SP Adaptall-2 80-200mm F/2.8 LD Model 30A
Other accessories that I have are the hood, original tripod collar, original Tamron case with strap (similar to the one pictured, except to hold the lens), and original caps.
The buyer will currently receive the lens, adapter, TC, and generic lens caps. Because I'm currently on a summer internship away from home, the other accessories mentioned above cannot be sent out until August. However the buyer is entitled to them as part of this listing.
I am looking for $500CAD for the whole lot. Shipping is extra and would be from Boston using your choice of shipment (Pickup possible too). The accessories would come from Toronto, and I will pay up to $10 or half the shipping cost for those things, whichever is HIGHER since it's an inconvenience to you.
I'm flexible with payment and paypal is fine, but for other methods (MO, interac email for Canadians, etc.), I would consider lower prices since those methods are usually less costly for me. I will also consider parting it out depending on interest.
I've done quite a few dealings here before (all went very smoothly).
Thanks!
