I have the Tamron 90mm f2.8 AF and the Pentax F 100mm f2.8. I prefer the Tamron for 
its handling, particularly the large focusing ring, as I'm often used MF for macro. I 
can't really see the difference in image quality, and when I tested them the Tamron 
gave higher contrast. The Pentax did have a fungus problem at the time (since fixed by 
Pentax), so I should probably test them again.

Cheers

Nick

    Subject: what's your favorite Pentax macro?
    
    Pentax glass experts,
    
    It looks like I might finally be able to buy a macro lens soon. I was
    wondering, what's your favorite Pentax (or other) macro lens and why? It
    could be AF or MF. 
    
    Thanks,
    Amita
