I just got a D810 and I'm looking for a new lens. I have a Tamron 24-70 2.8 with VC (VR) already. When I was looking for this lens I read opinions here and on other sites. I also checked the scores at DxO to see what was rated the best. The Tamron was the winner and I am happy with it. Now I am thinking of getting a 70-200 2.8 and Started at DxO. I compared the Sigma, Nikon, and Tamron lenses all with VR. The Tamron looks much better that the other 2. It is almost $1000 less than the Nikon and I was very surprised it did so well in comparison testing.
Is Tameron getting that much better? Is Nikon slipping in quality? Is DxO just wrong? The scores were 14 for Sigma, 24 for Nikon, and 31 for Tamron. I'll start digging into reviews and comments here and any other places I can find some info. If anyone has experience with the Nikon and Tamron let me know what you think.
