Simply a Great Lens at a Great Price
Pros: Has Aperture Ring, Sharp Focus, Well designed, Lightweight
Cons: Not as Wide as Others
Best Uses: Night Photography, Landscape Photography, General Use
Describe Yourself: Semi-Professional
This is a great lens for anyone who wants to have an f/2.8 zoom that is very sharp and has good color and Contrast. Images are very good and they do pop! CA is well controlled and it is at its best from F/4 on; though f/2.8 is quite nice.
Is it as good as the Nikon, not quite; however, is the Nikon $1000+ better? Not in my estimation. Its focus is not as slow as many complain. Why Tamron has not adopted the newer motor tech, I can't understand.
To its credit, this lens is significantly lighter than the Nikon lens and will be a real asset to people who do alot of walking with their camera.
