Tamron Adaptall 300mm f2.8

Asking Price
Tamron - 350.00 USD

Item Location
Milwaukee (United States)

Item Description

Tamron
It's time to let this beast go. It has served me well. No major issues with it. The front filter has some marks and fine scratches and there is dust and a piece of small lint in the glass. Otherwise it appears clean. Still a great lens for the money. Both the front and rear filters are included. There is no lens cap, but it come with a lens coat neoprene front cover. Original lens hood also included. It comes with a km mount so green button metering is required on a Pentax.

As a "bonus" I am including a Pk/a adapter but I can't figure out how to get it to work. So consider that a freebie and not guaranteed to work.

Good lens.

One of the sexiest lenses I've ever owned.
With the Pentax 1.7x TC it auto-focused with minimal pre-focus effort.

**mxis#1** · 07-20-2020, 07:37 PM

I have owned the equivalent from Pentax and Tokina in k mount. This one has the best image, sharp from corner to corner at 2.8!

**StephenMerola** · 07-21-2020, 05:34 AM

Thanks everyone. Hopefully I can find a good home for it.

**swip** · 07-21-2020, 01:50 PM

Good luck with the sale.

Artesian · 07-21-2020, 02:28 PM

I agree with everyone else. It is a great lens and I use it on my Pentax K-3 and Nikon D300s. Works great on both.

**StephenMerola** · 07-22-2020, 07:42 PM

Added an oddball to the sale. The Sigma 500mm f7.2 APO. Make me an offer.

You're original Lens is SICK! but this Siggy is stealthy!

Would you consider worlwide shipping (USPS Priority mail) for the Tamron ?

The Sigma is sold.

**UncleVanya** · 07-28-2020, 09:29 PM

So this includes the PK and PKA adapters but the PKA hasn't worked for you? What happens when you try to use it?

**StephenMerola** · 07-29-2020, 04:51 AM

The PKA won't stop down all the way and since I used the K for years without issue I just stuck with that instead if risking and damage to the lens.
