[QUOTE="480sparky, post: 492487, member: 15805"] Spent an hour or so walking around my hometown this afternoon shooting [b]just[/b] with the Tair 11A 135/2.8 since I obtained the 'correct' F adapter that allows me to focus to infinity. I wanted to spend some time with this lens to take 'er out for a test drive and see what she can do. Dam.... I was impressed. Especially considering this is a clunky 31-year-old Soviet hunk of glass. She may not look like much, but she sure can deliver!
