Dreaming of a fast 70-210mm or 80-200mm AF zoom

2005-08-13 Thread Jens Bladt
I use the SMC Pentax-F 4-5.6/70-210mm a lot. But it's often too slow. The FA 2.8 Pentax 80-200mm is almost three times as expensive as a similar Sigma lens. A Tokina 2.8 AT-X 80-200mm is only appr. 50% of the Sigma. This makes the Pentax lens is 6 times as expensive as the Tokina! Is it really

Jens, I don't know about the others but I have an ATX 80-200/2.8 manual focus and I love it. Bokeh is a bit harsh like the other Tokinas but all in all a superb lens. Cost me $249.00 US in excellent condition, had to get it cleaned for $66.00 but Adorama reimbursed me for that. Don
