Several makers had 75-150 lenses; in particular the Nikon f3.5 gets
good comments; Adorama or KEH prices $70-110. Tokina had a 60-10 2.8.
Prices on that are all over; Ebay shows an AE1 with the lens selling
recently for $29 but the only vendor actually offering one when I
checked was asking $450!
In theory at least, these look like rather a good choice. Decent
quality, moderate cost, constant fairly fast aperture and an
interesting zoom range. Used with a speed booster they'd be remarkably
fast.
I notice that Moose has or had the Tokina:

Has anyone tried these on m43? Any comments? Anyone want to sell one?
I'm a not remarkably skilled photographer interested mainly in
lightweight travel system on a tight budget. Camera I want is E-M10
but a used G3 might be the best I can afford. Looking at current
offerings I'd be most likely to get the GX7 bundle with 20 1.7 because
I want both that lens & in-body stabilisation. I'm waiting for some
funds to come in, hoping prices on some models will drop after
Photokina.
