[QUOTE="BeerBelly, post: 599887, member: 35439"] Just wanted to write up a bit more about my choice. I have compared Nikon 70-200 VR2 with my Tamron and while the AF speed did seem a bit better on the Nikon, image quality wise I couldn't find a difference between them. Color temperature is a bit warmer on the Nikon, but that is quite subjective which you prefer and easily correctable in post. As for the lens itself, I can hardly find a fault with it while using it. It's my most used lens, sharp wide open and fast enough for most things... Below is a photo taken at 200mm and f2.8, supposedly the weakest point of the lens...if that's weak, I don't know what sharp looks like :) [url=https://flic.kr/p/nEmEuj][img]https://c3.staticflickr.com/3/2900/14217550690_e969a95d5f_h.jpg[/img][/url][url=https://flic.kr/p/nEmEuj]D60_6262[/url] by [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/luftwalk/]luftwalk[/url], on Flickr And here a full size from the above photo: [url]https://www.flickr.com/photos/luftwalk/14217550690/sizes/o/[/url] [/QUOTE]
