What got me on the Tamron was the 1:2.5 repro and that it is at the long 
end, at least according to Roger. The Kiron is 1:4 and Cult Classics 
doesn't say at what fl. I know the 35-135/3.5-4.5 also goes to 1:4, but 
that is at 35mm. I do think very highly of the Kirons lenses. Maybe what 
got me on the Tamron was also that a quick 'Bay search found one right 
away closing soon and I got it for $37.75. Of course, it was with a 
non-Oly adaptall mount, but that's no problem. I haven't seen that Kiron 
in Oly mount in ages.
