Additional lenses included in this test:

  1. Tamron 26A SP 35-210mm f3.5-4.2. The other readily available adaptall x-210mm SP.
  2. Tamron 23A SP 60-300mm f3.5-5.4. One of the most reputable SP adaptalls with a 5x zoom range covering the same focal lengths.
  3. Tokina RMC 70-210mm f3.5. Tokinas own label precursor to the tokina VS1.

Cloudy, damp, relatively windless conditions. The test was slightly disrupted by a car entering the driveway where I had set up the tripod, the tripod was placed back in approximately the same place but there is a slight difference in the perspective - mainly size. The only PP I did was slight exposure adjustments. Images were however cropped to 4950×3300pixels, this was to create images that would more or less line up when viewed in the comparison windows.
