 This looks like a good alternative to the Sigma 18-35 F1.8 which is probably it's competitor, I think I prefer the Tamrons focal length albeit with a slightly smaller aperture, 15mm is the end that usually counts. Looks like a double sliding lenshood, but is the bulbous front element excluding filters?

  Very nice, everybody's upping the game!

 

  Announced at $1,200, so there are not going to be falling out of corn flake packets!
