Default compatiblity warning with dynax 5d when using certain tamron lenses

not sure if you guys spotted this notice at tamron's website (which was posted months ago...), but worth a mention (searched and found a post or two talking about this issue) 5d users beware !

========
Take caution when using models A061 (AF28-300mm Di), A09 (SP AF28-75mm Di), A05 (SP AF17-35mm Di) and A08 (SP AF200-500mm Di) with the Konica Minolta Maxxum 5D.

Turning the camera power back on while the compact flash access lamp is still lit leads to a malfunction of the AF (auto focus) mechanism of the camera. Make sure the access lamp is not lit when turning the camera power on.

In order to prevent this malfunction (ex. AF coupler running idle), turn the camera power off and turn it back on after the access lamp is no longer lit.

Tamron USA, Inc. can upgrade the CPU free of charge to be compatible with your Maxxum 5D. Please contact Tamron's service department at 1-800-827-8880 or email repair@tamron.com for details.
