I didn't know that Tamron still existed! I thought that they went out of business aeons ago. Has someone bought the name? I recall their lenses from the 70s and 80s, which you could get for pretty much any of the major mounts including LST, Pentax etc (but not M as far as I recall). The teles that I had at the time on my Minoltas probably didn't give as good images as these, but then optics has progressed apace in the interim.
