Comments about Tamron Tamron SP AF 17 - 50mm f/2.8 XR DI-II LD Aspherical (IF) Standard Zoom Lens for the Maxxum & Sony Alpha Mount, 6 Year USA Warranty:

This lens is very sharp, even at 2.8. It was heavier (better built) than I expected, and the construction is wonderful.

Comments about Tamron Tamron SP AF 17 - 50mm f/2.8 XR DI-II LD Aspherical (IF) Standard Zoom Lens for the Maxxum & Sony Alpha Mount, 6 Year USA Warranty:

I have never been let down with this lens. It consistently puts out sharp pictures and is very well made. I own another Tamron as well and again, I haven't been let down. The 6 year warranty is great as well. It isn't something you find with other lens companies. At f 2.8 throughout the entire zoom range you'll get quality photos with a lot of detail. Moreover, the price is rediculously reasonable for such good quality!

Comments about Tamron Tamron SP AF 17 - 50mm f/2.8 XR DI-II LD Aspherical (IF) Standard Zoom Lens for the Maxxum & Sony Alpha Mount, 6 Year USA Warranty:

Excellent walk around lens. Very sharp at all apertures, good results wide open. Well built with a solid feel. Nice zoom range...would have been perfect out to 70mm, but still a nice range. I would recommend this lens to anyone for the alpha mount! Money well spent!
