You have to be very quick where lens bargains are concerned

I wonder if anyone would dare to wear the 3rd cardigan down
(with the pipe) today

She did once tell me in a post on here that the performance of the 170-500mm film version and the digital version was identical. It was just a bit of marketing speak. Sounds too good to turn down at £230

Well captured!..... just to be awkward I'd trim a little off the
RHS although retaining the arm is important, so I suppose it's
better left as it is

I'd forgotten that grass grows in warm weather
It didn't even grow here last summer

Any T2 mount will do, but buy NEW not SH.... the mount is held
on with 3 slot head grubscrews and they may well be damaged
through excessive use on a SH T2 mount. Very simple to fit.
The ring in the midddle usually isn't needed.

Either of these will do:

Disappointing to hear that Tokina Service is so bad

I've got the same lens so I'll just have to keep my fingers crossed
that it continues to work well.

I had even considered buying a different make of camera so that
I could buy the latest Tokina 80-400mm

If you type "Pentax" into the search box it shows 385 photos taken on Pentax gear.
