Hi Godfrey and Paul thanks for your comments. I love this Tamron 17mm lens already and will use it a lot in the mountains and for advertising shots of Zurich and its surroundings in the near future.
I have it from a bundle sale at an auction together with an A-1 and AE-1 canon body, a 50mm and 75-200mm canon fd lens and a braun sca flash. I have already sold the AE-1 body with the 50mm again and at the end will have this Tamron lens and the Canon A-1 body for free at the end! I'm really happy today since I got the first prints and the first comments of friends of the scans I sent them of the big wheel and Zurich. The "puzzle" Zurich postcard mentioned in my last email "digital postcards" is also made with the 17mm Tamron lens greetings Markus >>-----Original Message----- >>From: Godfrey DiGiorgi [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >>Sent: Friday, July 15, 2005 3:10 PM >>To: [email protected] >>Subject: Re: PESO:Big wheel >> >> >> >>On Jul 14, 2005, at 11:44 PM, Markus Maurer wrote: >> >>> I just had do try my newest enablement, a used Tamron SP 17mm, with >>> the >>> Pentax SFXn when I saw this big wheel and the teenagers in the >>> foreground.
