Hi Kostas yes, I would take a Tamron SP too since I'm very happy with my SP 90mm 2.5 macro and have an additional adapter for Pentax left. The Adaptall2 for Pentax are quite rare here and sell well on auctions. I got the last one on a flee market together with a Tamron BBAR 80-200mm zoom F3,8-4 for 27 Euro (40 Swiss francs) I have not tested that zoom yet but think my Pentax SMC A70-210mm should be better but is also heavier.
thanks for the recommendation Kostas.
