    a Good Camera Club Mate and Fellow FLICKR member gave me these great lenses ! Here are an Auto- MAKINON MC zoom 35-70mm f3.5 - 4.5 and a wonderful TAMRON BBAR Multi-Coated Zoom with 'Macro' 85-210mm f4.5
    Initial tests show MAKINON slightly Soft at full aperture and TAMRON useable at full aperture and really sharp for 'Macro' setting.

    I also have a like for the FD and the FL and have a few in my collection.
    I prefer the primes, 28, 35. 50 and a 55 F1.2.
    The 55 is a big chunk of glass, my copy is a little knocked around but I have found no issues with the images.
