Damn it people, when referring to a lens in good condition, the adjective
is "mint", technically "mint condition", as in perfect condition, like a
coin that has just left the mint, where coins are produced.
If your lens is minty, then you should look for toothpaste smeared on
it giving it that m

Hey, it's like I asked him before... if he was stupid or just pretending to be.
Setting up a list with the default not being 'reply to list' is self-defeating.

can't mount an argument against you. I guess what I like about it is the
focal range (which seems near-ideal for portraiture) in combination with
the sharpness. I have an A 28-135 that is

My 28-80 2.8 Tokina zoom is built like a tank and is better with film than with

paying for a Pentax, Tamron, or Sigma. :-)

Those photos do a pretty nice job of summarizing my feelings about the
A35-105/3.5.
It's a bit bigger lens but takes nice pictures...and it's an A series
too! (no green button needed)

Its an amazing lens. My copy is pretty beat up, but I wouldn't part
with it for anything. In fact I want to fix it up. I think even my
"awful" takumar 70-210 is a better lens for portraits. in fact I think
its kind of a sleeper.

Hello PDML:
Well, I sent in my FA 50mm f1.4 & my DA* 50-135mm f2.8 in to CRIS. The FA
returned pretty quick--just got it an hour ago, and looks to be ok. Here are
two quickie test shots. Metadata is above the photo.
