I need new lens' for my Maxxim 5. I have Sigma 28-80 and 70-300. Both are now bad. I found that I could get the same focul length in either new Tamron, or used Minolta for a good price.

Of course, the big difference is the warranty. The Minolta lens' are both the D type so they will work with the enhanced flash, the Tamron lens' are not D type.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
