Re: [OM] Tamron Lens

[Mike Gordon via olympus]

Thanks much for thinking about this, Piers.  I think indeed there was a newer 
AF version, now that I reflect on it.  I bet you are correct.  

 IIRC ,however I believe Walt liked the  Tamron 28-105/2.8.  I remember looking 
at that lens in my first B&H catalog and pleased one could purchase a brand 
spanking  new lens for OM.  This was just a year or so after I joined the list. 
 I posted a question  as had others and recall a few   "doorstop"  comments or 
some such and  found the Photodo  MTF score 2.4. I am not saying one number can 
reflect the use of a lens to a given photog but it does show the lens has some 
limitations.

 I don't recall if he liked the 35-105/2.8 too.

A reasonable Waltism  or two included.
