Peter -
Have you considered the 85-250/5? I picked one up very cheaply a little
while ago, and have begun using it more recently. I'm pleased with the color
and contrast, resolution/sharpness seem good (no careful tests yet) and
there's a tripod collar available (John Hermanson may have them).
Gary Reese's tests gave it basically A-B range ratings, and B isn't shabby.
