Thanks!

I have the Yashica ML and the DSB. They are both more than acceptable, although I prefer the DSB (smaller, lighter). I dont have the Tamron, but they are usually highly regarded. You will also see that it is a common viewpoint that this particular focal length has many outstanding lenses in it and most are pretty decent.

The Tamron Adaptall 1 135/2.8 is a decent performer, but I haven't tried the ML as a comparison. What I will say is that the Tamron is more portable...if you move to Nikon, Pentax or Sony in the future then you can just change the mount Smile

Yashica 135 DSB has best IQ from above. Yashica ML marked with small red "C" on front ring crappy really. Tamron 135mm is an excellent lens too, but not reach DSB level.

Patience laddie, patience.

You have to wait until someone who actually has the lenses you ask about arrives to answer... Wink

Thanks.

Yashica and Tamron. Both in similar price. I have some adaptall Tamrons (300/5.6 and 28/2.5), so maybe I try to get another one Tamron.

So Yashica is gone. Should I take Tamron?

Finally, I let go both of them, because I found something more interesting to me: Canon FD 55/1.2 S.S.C.
