I don't have the 17mm Tamron any more (but I think I know who does, Jon?).
I also don't have a D200 or any other N body.
But I do have a couple of N Adaptall mounts should any body here be willing
to confess they need one. Or two!
USD20 shipped anywhere, Paypal, CC are fine. And I won't tell on you.

It just occurred to me that a Tamron 17mm, with the appropriate Adaptall
adapter ring, might make a 24-25mm on a D200... It was a very good lens on
an OM camera, has anybody tested it on a D200 (or a C*non)?
