I've been tempted to bid on that one myself. Thought I might then try &
sell my Tamron SP equivalent, on the grounds that big Tammy (as she is
known) doesn't have a tripod mount whereas this Tokina does.
Decided to go back to hoping a tripod mount for big Tammy shows up (or
resort to making one somehow).
Brian: if you've a use/need for a fast tele, it's worth much more than
forty-odd quid, really it is.
