It's a nice combination, Herd. I've always liked Tamrons, ever since I dumped the kit lens that came with my N90s, and replaced it with two Tamrons. I would like to find the proper hood for this lens (59FH), and that's about the only thing the outfit needs. I do have an ML 50/1.9, and an ML 70-210/4.5 to go with it, but didn't feel like changing lenses in the cold.
This is my first Yashica SLR that was in operable condition. One I got just as a parts mule (TL Electro) , and on the other two (TL Electro-X ITS) I need to swap some parts to get one good one out of them. Then I found a nice Penta J with the clip-on meter. I need to try that one next.
Thanks for the comments. I looked at a snowfall map this morning, and there were some places southwest of here that got lots more than we did, because they got the cold air sooner. Those three and a half days of rain before the snow didn't help with the accumulations either.
