Indeed, I agree with you, Brian. If one own more than one camera system - the adaptall lenses are a blessing. It just so happens that I own only Pentax ;-).

Re: Anyone using the tamron 90mm macro
I've been using this version for years and think it's excellent. However, I've never had anything else to compare it with. It's an adaptall 2 lens which adds to its usability immeasurably. In addition to the Pentax K/KA bodies, I've used it on an old Konica T3, various M42 bodies and, amazingly, on an old Zorki rangefinder (via a Nikon adaptall mount and a Novoflex Leinik (Nikon-Leica) adapter.

RE: Anyone using the tamron 90mm macro
I have the same one and I also like it. Apart from close-ups I frequently used it in portrait range, though on digital it has become a bit long for that so I am using my FA 50/1.4 now instead.

Re: Anyone using the tamron 90mm macro
I have the AF version of the 90mm Tamron f2.8 in Pentax mount, very happy with it. It is probably more flare prone then Pentax glas. However, why would you give up the FA 100/2.8?

Re: Anyone using the tamron 90mm macro
John, the DFA lenses were introduced way earlier before K10D was introduced. At the time, it seems, the ways of Pentax were unsure. Now they seem to be more or less committed to APS (1.5 crop factor) format. There were only two DFA lenses - 50/2.8 and 100/2.8 both macro. Boris J. C. O'Connell wrote: > DFA?
