A Fellow Camera Club member loaned me her Tamron SP Adaptall 2 17mm f3.5 lens Nikon fit -- luckily I HAVE a couple of Nikon bodies that my Wife never uses now so I use them ! I fitted it onto a Nikon FG and loaded a Kodak T400 BW 'Chromogenic Film ' for C41 process I wanted to use up . I rated the outdated film at 200 ASA as it was old . I used the 'built-in Yellow Filter' on some shots. I have doen some darkroom PRINTS on 6x4" Ilford Multigrade IV Glossy and scanned with HP Scanjet 4570 .

Your experience in the industry always pays off Pete.
These are great images with the film.
I'm favouring the first, with the shadows of the fence and the dogs leading!
 
I really like the Tamron 17mm. I've used it on both the Canon 5D and Nikon D600 full frame bodies without problems. Mine is the original model with the built in filters...

Andrew-- Thanks for showing YOUR samples - YES -- the 17mm I had on loan was the same one with built-in Filters.
