>> I bought a used Tokina AT-X one time that came with a sliding >> front hood which was "sloppy".
Oops - I should have mentioned that it was the AT-X 150-500/5.6 (which is the only AT-X lens I've ever not wished to keep - it's built like a tank and has a very nice feel to it, as are and do my other AT-X's, but it was somewhat soft above 300mm or so). > Thanks Fred, that's an encouraging (and most unusual) story. THK > (Tokina,Hoya,Kenko) are in Long Beach, CA. Yes, Long Beach "rings a bell", I guess. Fred
