Hi

I am more or less inclined towards getting a Tamron 17-50f2.8
Just like to hear from those who have / had the lens
on what they DONT like about the lens

I noticed a couple did sell it off a day or 2 later......

My chief concern so far is their local agent support.
Sounds like they are unresponsive....

HOw about other factors ??

Main complain, no IS
 

what about err99 on canon bodies?
 

Is a noisy lens :(
think i have to wait for sigma newer lens or tokina lens

I can't stand noisy lens
 

how about AF speed ?

anyone compared it to sigma 18-50f2.8 ?
Is the Tamron able to keep up to the Sigma ?
 

Someone here tested both lens. He must have a built in stopwatch in his eyes/brain, cause he says Sigma is milliseconds faster :bsmilie:

wah.. i get mentioned.. :sweat: no, i didnt use a stopwatch or something like that. my hands are not fast enough to press start and stop for the lens to AF..:embrass:

my meaning of the earlier post that was posted is supposed to mean that the AF speed difference is negligible..

i would emphasize that, there is no point reading all about the reviews and opinion, just get down to a shop and try it for yourself :)
 

THinking of buying from japan, my fren is there now. but dont know got warranty or not
(international Warranty)
 

Check HK price.

Saw in HK E-ZONE magazine, price is cheaper than Sg.
Not sure got warranty anot...
 

It doesn't state... i only know canon comes with international warranty for lenses...

So it is pretty cheap. But is it cover under intl warranty ?
