Hey guys,
I would like to look for a 24-85 range lens.
Now I aim at Tamron 28-75 and Canon 24-105. F2.8 is not necessary to me.
My purpose is show and exhibition photograph.
My body is 450D, crop frame.
Who has used these lens before? which is sharper which is better?
Thank you

The Canon is more expensive, and probably more contrasty. The Tamron may be a tad sharper, but there will not be much in it. The Canon has way better build quality. The Canon focusses much faster and more silent. The Tamron may become problematic when using an external Canon flash. The Canon offers IS.
3rd candidate: The Canon EF-S 15-85mm f3.5-5.6 IS USM.
