With all the user reviews I was expecting more. And the Tamron is slightly better. Disappointing IMHO.

In my book, it's an excellent lens below 150 mm, and a good enough lens above. No, it's not perfect, and it took me three samples to get one in proper working order. But as a lightweight travel telephoto, it's certainly worth the money (and hassle). Just MHO.
