Tamron 90mm focus issue
the hexagonal I cant focus on anything icon?".......What is that?.... If it can't focus the green hexagonal which is lit when focus is locked just flashes and you cant fire the shutter.

Tamron 90mm focus issue
is it the older tamron or the di ? It's the Di. It only goes as far as the "L"....Mine does anyway! Now that is interesting! I never noticed it didn't go any further than this, so I presumed as it didn't go as far as the infinity symbol (when my other lenses all do) that was a new thing. :/ ...

Tamron 90mm focus issue
I've got a 17-50mm Tamron in for repair at the mo, cost depends on fault. Labour is the big component for the skilled (I hope) tech to dismantle and repair. My current repair is just over £60. They are calibrating the focus for the K-7, they even phoned to check today. I'll let you all know ho...

Tamron 90mm focus issue
I sent a support request to Tamron, and they forwarded it to Intro 2020 Ltd, same place that has yours. They said the same, I send it in, they give me a quote. One thing to add to your information, if you do not wish them to repair the lens they charge you £9 to return it. So it's basically £9 + ...

Tamron 90mm focus issue
This might be a stupid thing to say but you haven't got the focus limit switch set have you? Mine has a "FULL" or "LIMIT" setting on the side of the lens that specifically limits the travel. When set to limit it can either focus from 0.45m to Infi or from 0.29 to 0.4 m depensing where the lens...

Tamron 90mm focus issue
The travel is from 0.29m to L, it doesn't go as far as infinity, the limit switch does exactly what it should do. :/

Tamron 90mm focus issue
So, got my estimate back. The fault requires them to "Recollimate focus system" which will cost me £31.50 + VAT. Not too bad I guess, but I am already now cautious about getting another Tamron lens. Total price including shipping it back, £46.80.

I do more sharpening with my K-5 than I did with the K10D. Have you checked the lens using the focus adjustment?

I had a comercial soot looking all wrong then realized When teaching Gerri some of the new features in Aperture 3 I had somehow accidentally set aperture to treat j-pegs as masters instead of raw.... changed that setting back, ...
