Thanks for the fun video! Good times :) I've been testing many vintage telezooms in the past, on 80-200mm ish range. I wanted to find a lens that's great on the long end, but usually they're their worse there. They just don't grab me. But this cheap ol' Tamron 300mm f5.6 is really quite good! Lovely vintage look to it, i love the images it puts out. It quite alright wide open too. Finally the tele lens that speaks to me. Surely manual focusing with a long lens like this is hard, but push on and you'll get some gems. Yes, great IBIS helps ALOT! There's many other Tamron lenses that are great and quite special. Perhaps the Canon FD lenses are generally the best. But, it doesn't really matter at the end. It's up to the photographer, not so much to the lens...

Yeah. It was a great discovery and the quality especially on my zoo video was amazing. When the subject is stationary focus is easy. With a nice soft warm light this lens shines. I got a 5dii recently and looking at adapting old fd lenses.. but then ef lenses are cheap these days too. But they say fd has that look. I think Tamron is under rated. I'm not an expert but for me they are pretty good 👍

The video devotes most of its time to a brief description of the Adaptall system (actually Adaptall II) and further adapting that to digital systems. What it fails to cover, probably because our maker doesn't know, is that his 300mm 5.6 SP Tamron lens is almost unique in style and rare among Tamron lenses. In short, it is a semi-macro telephoto lens, focusing down to 1:3 life size. It's design incorporates a floating lens group, a practice then only recently started by Nikon in some of its new lenses. This allows the lens formula to be optimized for wide range of focal distances rather than just one. These are not too costly when you find one, because almost no one knows what it can do. Few were sold when new, probably because a 5.6 maximum aperture was an off-putting spec at the time, and Tamron never really advertised its virtues. If you are into macro photography, find one if you can.

Thanks. Randall.. didn't know the rich history.. I've always thought this one that I have is something special.. especially for video when I went to the zoo.. Tamron doesn't get the credit it deserves I think.. even today.. I'm going to try some macro now with it now.. 😆

That was well worth a try Roberto.It makes you wonder how anybody .manged to get a picture of a bird in flight in ye olden manual focus days. We're spoiled now. I've got the 50mm f1.8 from my old OM10 film camera. It's sharp! People have said that they don't always produce sharp pictures, but I've got no complaint with mine. A pity that you didn't react in time to get a still image of the passing pterodactyl, that would have been a good test fro the Tamron.

I found it more rewarding manually focusing. Like a game on how many i can get sharp. Ill get that 50mm.. it just looks so coo..l. Lol pterodactyl

I think I have mentioned to you that I use vintage lenses with my EM10 mkii. The one I tend to use the most is a Canon 100mm FD f4 . I work out focus based on where the bird normally perches. It is still a hit and miss process with me though.

My tamron will go well on the em1. With you on that. I like the challenges of prefocus and manual. Its part of the fun. A sense of achievement amidst the all too easy technology we have today. The journey is the target.. 🐶

Nice lens ! I use more & more vintage lens that i buy for cheap. I tried Olympus OM, fujinon, canon fd & more. Theses oldies are sharp, the colors & contrast surprising. It always fun to shoot with. The only issues are the size & the weight. It is relaxing to switch to modern Olympus lenses after that 😂

Yes so affordable. Manual focus but still just as good. I just wanted to see what 300mm can do. I want to buy the 100 to 400 now.
