Neither would I, from an optical standpoint.

I haven't tried tne Oly mount on mine. I have the Tamron mount and don't
want to modify Oly mounts that have a 300/4.5 and 65-115 to fit on. The
Tamron mount certainly does have some flex in it, that makes it feel
less steady. I doubt if that is the case, but it never feels quite rock
solid to me.
