I have all the macro flashes, as well as the cross polarizing filter for the
T10. It is my recommendation, and a necessity if you intend to remain in good
standing here, that you obtain all of them too. Then you must start on getting
all the macro lenses. :-)
Take note, though, that neither the T28 shoe, T8 or T10 will screw directly
into that Tamron -- at least not into the 90/2.8. (I don't know about the
older 90/2.5 since I don't have one.) Its nose is too fat to accommodate the
Olympus flashes since they all are intended to attach to either 49mm or 55mm
filter threads, thus being designed to fit lenses with front threaded parts
only a couple of millimeters thick, like the Zuikos.
The solution: Dig through the bargain bins at your friendly neighorhood
pusher's emporium and get a couple of 55mm filters, remove the glass, screw
them together, and then the Oly macro flashes will fit.
