Photographed with a Canon EOS 30D and an M42 thread Sigma 80-200mm zoom f/4.5-5.6 attached with an adapter. This lens was launched in 1985. It came in Canon, Nikon, Olympus, Minolta, Praktica B, Praktica screw (M42), Yashica/Contax, Konica, Fuji, and Pentax/Ricoh P (KPR) mounts. It took 52mm filters; was multi-coated; and made in Japan. It was priced at £79.95 or you could buy a special twin pack that also included the companion Sigma 35-70mm f/2.8-4.5 at a special price of £130. 'Camera Weekly' magazine reviewed the two lenses on 8 March, 1986, in a 'Quality on a Budget' feature. They remarked, 'the lenses will satisfy the expectations of even the enthusiast' and were 'quite up to all but the most demanding usage'. You can buy this lens on eBay for 99p; several have changed hands at that sum.

Nikon D2Xs fitted with a Nikon TC-16A teleconverter and a 75-150mm f/3.5 Series E lens. When you use legacy lenses on the D2Xs, you have a choice of metered manual or aperture-priority modes. Usually I use the latter; you can dial in more or less exposure if the meter is being fooled. Here, I wanted a slow-ish shutter speed as I waited for a subject to pass under me on a bridge over a motorway. The simplest way of getting that seemed to be to be low ISO (where the D2Xs excels anyway) and a small aperture (f/8 got me into the right arena). I took quite a few pictures and this one was really the only one I liked.
