No, not too bad at all. I've had the original version of this for more years than I care to remember and it remains one of my most used lenses. > But for my $150, I got that (and the Adaptall adapter might open the > market for me with other lenses), the Sigma 70-210 (which may or may not > be better than the cheap 'n' dirty Pentax 80-200 I already have), the > Pentax 28-80 (yawn), a TTL flash extension cable, a couple of circular > polarizers, and the AF330 flash (which appears to be TTL only, > unfortunately). All in a big black Tamrac bag! My AF330 makes a nice paperweight for my desk - about the only thing its good for these days. Even my older AF280T is more useful. :-(> > I guess the lens, TTL cable, pair of circular polarizers and the new > camera bag were worth the $150.

Not sure, really - I just couldn't resist making a bid when there seemed to be no interest from anyone else.
