Yes, I had forgotten about the 35-70/3.6 and others; I just remembered my
own 85-250.

Re Tom's comment, I have a few other short Tamron and Tokina zooms that are
shortest at around 50mm, and extend at 28mm and 80/85mm. One learns to
store them at 50mm to minimize their size.

The weirdest is the 35-70/3.5-4.5.  At 35 it is long, and gets shorter up
to
50. At 50 it is at its shortest and it gets long again up to 70!

What's up with that.
