Thanks, Derby. That's interesting looking. I've never seen one of 'em before, and I was just curious. > I have to say, I'm a bit intrigued with this lens.

I picked up a Tamron (Adaptall 2) 70-150/2.8 zoom with an "extra" control ring on it, for controlling its soft focus effects (from no softening to a moderate blur and everything in between). It is not a "krappy" lens by any means, but I pick it up, not because it might be "super-duper-sharp", but because I was interested in playing around with the soft-focus effects (as a portrait lens). Sometimes you stumble onto some "odd personality" older lens that just hints at "fun" so much that you "haftahavit" - <g>. Fred
