William Sharington bought Lacock Abbey from the Crown following the Dissolution of the Monasteries. The house was built over the old cloisters and its main rooms are on the first floor. In the spot you can see in the foreground stood the chapel used for worship by the nuns. Sharington had it demolished to provide building material for his planned alterations.

Tokina did not keep their 50-135mm fast zoom pro lens long in production. They may have misjudged the market for a lighter weight equivalent to the various f/2.8 70-210mm and 80-200mm lenses. Plus, the Nikon - compatible version needed a camera with a screw drive for the AF and not all Nikon digital cameras are so equipped.
The lens was a collaborative project with Pentax and the Pentax version is the only one to remain available new. It will set you back over £700. That is a measure of how good this lens is.
