I did try to save adaptall-2.com because it went to down. I did pay hosting fee from donations , but now not working due domain name expired too. I did purchase adaptall-2.org and I upload adaptall-2.com content to over there. Hopefully Google will recognize changes soon, please visit adaptall-2.org a few times per day to help change.

Is the "Adaptall" and "Adaptall-2" lenses (non-SP) suppose to be empty?

Do you think we can start adding new content? I was going to make a section for prototypes, OEM clones, and other oddballs. Cool


Also, since the site is plastered with MEM-TEK copyright notices, adaptall-2.org should probably have its start page changed. I would think that the following would be appropriate:
* Acknowledge the hard work of the original site creator
* Describe the situation of Adaptall-2.com going down, being unable to contact the owner, paying the hosting fees while still trying to contact the owner, restarting the site as Adaptall-2.org, links to other forums discussing the owner's disappearance, etc.
* Ask that anyone who knows the original owner contact Attila


"Orphaned works" are a subject of much debate in copyright law... but doing due diligence in contacting the original owner (which you already have done, but should continue to do) would put it in a much better situation should the original site owner come back and for some reason not be happy with what has been done.

I still wait for Marcus (owner) so I didn't want to make any significant changes for a while. If he will not showing up , perhaps content will be redesigned and modified.

There were some newer adaptall lens which does not included in the site. I think we could complete the list ourselves.

I did some Googling... apparently it has a beam splitter and its own fully contained AF system. The lens required batteries, and the camera didn't know anything about it - so any standard Adaptall-2 mount could be used. Cool

Interestingly enough, one of the information sources I found was an old version of MFLenses. Very Happy

This lens has AF sensor and build-in motor. The motor is powered by 3x AAA batteries.

Shall we move the content of the old version to the current version?

I own a number of Tamron lenses but had never heard of this one before coming across it at a car boot sale. From memory I think I paid £20 for it. Smile

I have one of those too.. Smile

(I think I now have every Adaptall-2 (CF and SP) apart from the f2.8 fast 28-200)
