Actually the question is still the same Roy, because there are several different models of Tamron 90mm macro lenses. If you're not sure which one you have, then at least the maximujm aperture (f2.5 or f2. and the focusing (AF or MF) would be useful to know.

Which one did you have in mind Roy, or all of them?

There are quite a few Pentax macro lenses - 35mm, 50mm and 100mm in the current range, plus a wholehistory of 50mm, 100mm and 200mm lenses stretching back decades. Any of them will deliver excellent results and to ne honest you don't even need an AF macro lens. MF versions are perfectly good for macro work.

Possibly built in hoods are out for reasons of AF lens construction. In any event, as we now have bayonet hoods at least they are better than screw-in ones!

You could search for a D-FA and I'm sure you'll find one somewhere.

The WR version has just been tested in a group in Advanced Photographer and holds its head high, being more impressive than the Zeiss macro...but there's more to tests and read the report in full before deciding if its characteristics are for you.

I'll close this one off so we only have one thread on the subject.

Thread tidied up. Please keep to the point in Classifid Ads - offers only or questions about the lens.

It can take as little as a few minutes to transfer money from one bank account to another via Internet Banking, even if they are different banks.

The process that PayPal use must be an older method because you are not initiating the transfer, they are asking for the money.

Sadly, if there's no response and you have a grievance then you need to find out the process that should be gone through. It might be that you have to write in with your complaint to the Club Secretary. Perhaps you need a certain number of members to call an EGM to air matters and get a vote from the meeting.

However, do try talking to them first as no-one likes the "official" paths of compalaining. Why not get on the committee and take on the task of cataloging the trophies and any other property?

Of course we talk from time to time. The delay in your reply is probably because PentaxDan is away till Tuesday next week. Dan is the Admin Man and the one you need to talk to.
