MO: Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 DI ???

[kenghor]

This lens is as good as the Canon EF 24-70mm L and the Nikon's counter part.
It is very light at about 500g as compared to the brick of stone from Canon.
And the price is certainly affordable at less than $600 (according to BH photo price, I've not really checked on the actual price yet). Certainly a better buy than the Canon 24-85mm lens!

So who is interested to get this lens for their Canon EOS and Nikon bodies?

Check out all the reviews and raves at forums at www.nikonians.org and www.dpreviews.com and elsewhere on the net.

Would be excellent if it is a 24-75mm but for sure I'm interested for such a good price and optics. If we have enough order we can have a MO to bargain for a better price.

I'm interested too. Will definitely get one if an M.O. gets going.
Pls keep us updated.

Price is at $650. Price inclusive of GST and shipping etc...
Lens comes with full warranty.
If u receive a faulty lens, get it exchanged at no additional cost.

OK. I'll need at least 10 orders for the lens.


Note that BH Photo is selling at $320. Shipping at $35.
Then u'll kenna 5% GST (320 + 35).
Then your credit card exchange rate is at 2 - 3% premium (around 1.73)..

 

[kenghor]

For those who are interested, please put down your name and the camera mount...

Once I got enough order, you will pay me a $400 deposite before I MO the lens. U'll get the lens within a week.

Sure we can get slightly cheaper price compared to what's retailing at CP/AP if u order together as a MO.

 

[kenghor]

Heard that MS color is offering $599 b4 GST.
No point MO through my source....

But we can MO from MS color for a even better price...
Please list down your name if u're interested to MO this lens.

 

[kenghor]

alamak... someone anyhow give me info...
I just called MS color and was told the lens is $670 (b4 GST) and no stock...
So my price at $650 is still attractive...

Just to ask,will DI lenses from Tamron vignette when used on a FF SLR (film or digital)?

Tempting....

 

[blurblock]

Definately more then 650, you have to factor in the 2% commission from forgien exchange conversion rate, on top of the standard interbank exchange rate (which is higher then normal street rate already).

Then your warrantly is USA warrantly, meaning anything wrong got to ship back to USA, note, shipping charge is your charge, not the seller's problem.

 

[serendipity]

Hi Snag. I doubt so. As Tamron spec did mentioned that it is doable on film 35mm SLR. I hope so too.

I have it and it doesn't.
Do note that you can get it at AP for about $600.

Are u sure?
I've checked with some stores and they state price below $600 but no stock.
This is a common tactic to get customer coming back again.... Since CP is selling at $690, they can't be too far off from the actual price unless AP is a grey lens. But I dont' think there's any grey Sigma around here....

I'm sure because I bought one with a SHMC filter and microfibre cloth for only $635 total 2months back. Perhaps it might be a grey set.
