Mine's the motor version.. Is there a price difference between motor and non-motor?
Wha? I usually extend the number of posts per page.. to the maximum..
hi what is gray set ?
I just got a quote from MS color $630 - 3 yr waranty - not cheap
any other place quote cheaper?
Is this 3 yr shop warranty or Tamron warranty ?
TCW price 600 SGD with 1 yr shop warranty
3 yr warranty is by JEL, from various thread, they send the len back to Japan for servicing.
for 1 yr warranty by TCW, so far someone mention it is service by the shop themselves.
just my opinion, sending ur lens for serivces ard a month plus but a 3 yr warranty, i dun mind. just that i need to make sure it is a sharp copy

gray set is parallel import set or ppl who ownself bring in.
they normally do not have local warranty.
ok i got quote from a few other famous photo shop range 620-630 with gst too.
Try OP. they selling the cheapest so far

In Hongkong, the price is S$550 vs S$630 in Singapore, I think Singapore is better with 3 yrs additional warranty.
Where is the recommended place to go? Cathay or OP?

Hi guys
How do I actual test for the sharpness and picture quality in shops? Can I view the pictures from LCD?

read that this lens is noisy when focusing. is this problem also present in those without built-in-motor? if the noise comes from the motor then those without motor shouldn't be as noisy?
anyone with non-bim lenses care to comment?

Have the 17-50 and loving it.
It's on my camera most of the time.
Where else can you get a constant f2.8 zoom at this price, Nikon's 17-55 is around $2k.
For those concerning about focusing noise, all i can say is the shutter noise is even louder.
So, what's there to worry about? :dunno:

For 17-50mm zoom range don't think VC is necessary.
But more of a "good to have" function.
The other thread is talking about a possible 17-50 with VC, but at a cost of around $1k+.
