Searching for an AF Macro Lens ( not Cosina or similar with 1:2 ratio ) 90 to 105 mm

I prefer the Samsung version of the D-FA 100 , but i'll consider Sigma or Tamron and Pentax obviously

PM your offer , I'll reply with mine

Let me know if you might be interested in the Sigma 70/2.8 macro (boxed and excellent condition). I know it's not quite the focal length you are looking for, but it's a superb lens - rumoured to be the sharpest they've ever made. It's also supposed to work well with their APO teleconverters, which would give you both 70mm and 100mm options.

Cheers,

Jon

Thank you Jon, but 50/70 mm is not my preferred focal for macro.
I do not want to stay too close to the subject.

Thank you again for your proposal.

Not to hijack this post, but Jon are you still selling the sigma 70mm macro?
And what would be your price including shipping to the netherlands?

Regards,

Carlo

A Tamron for sale in the classifieds - seems highly rated...

A great lens ( like my SP adaptall 2 ) at a VERY good price, but in the meanwhile I bought another lens ( Samsung DFA From ParkCamera for £276 ).
I don't know how to close or change the subject of this post but now i have a Tamron 90 SP Adaptall 2 to sell .
