UK - Free stuff - OM Fit Tamron 80-210 3.8-4
Tamron adaptall2 80-210 f3.8-4 CF Tele Macro - UGLY
Save this from landfill for a fiver postage.
This came in as part of a job lot of OM lenses. It's a once very nice Tamron adaptall2 lens. Now in UGLY condition due to something having eaten the inside of the front element coating, it can be yours for free (except you'll need to pay the postage - £5 via PayPal covers it in the UK).
On the plus side - it's fast and light and feels good adapted to mft. It also still takes nice, sharp, neutral, lower contrast images. The physical condition is very good. You also get the adaptall2 OM mount which would fit any adaptall2 lens.
On the minus side - the front element is hazy and irreprable. Someone's scrubbed it already so to repair you're looking at a new one. I imagine it will flare a lot, and probably is a lot less sharp and contrasty than a perfect copy. This might suit portraits quite well.
