>From my memory there are only 3 contacts on the
Tamron mount, but still that may be fine. I think
all Tamron lenses have a minimum aperture of f/32,
so that saved communicating a few bits of
information via the PKA contacts, I guess.

My Tamron 180/2.5 was reported as f/2.8 on my PZ-1p,
although I have never worried about that 1/3 stop
difference. f/2.5 is one of their favorite maximum
apertures (24mm, 90mm, etc.)
