[QUOTE="hark, post: 521531, member: 13196"] I don't know anything about the lens itself, but because it has an aperture ring, it is from the 35mm film days. Tamron glass from back then won't be quite as sharp as some of what they manufacture now. Pairing it with a D800 (BIG sensor), the limitations of the lens [I]might[/I] be more apparent. Just so you know, usually lenses with aperture rings require the aperture ring be set at the smallest aperture, or you will get an err message. Is there any way you can take a few test shots on your D800? Hopefully someone with this lens can give you a more definitive answer as my info is simply supposition. [/QUOTE]
