[QUOTE="Danno, post: 553295, member: 34269"] I would recommend you spend the money on a lens with image stabilization. I bought the Sigma counter to the Tamron and went with an 18-250 (at the time they did not have 18-300) because I walk for my therapy and I could not really deal with changing lens on my walks and I wanted the versatility for those times. Between the Tamron and Sigma, (the ones I could afford), it had the best review. If that is what you want for walking around car events and are willing to compromise some on IQ, go with one of these super zooms. Go to DP Review or some place comparable and read what they say and what people that own them say. If you can carry a couple lenses get the 70-300 Nikon used and look for a shorter lens for the close up work. I have a Tamron 28-75 f/2.8 without image stabilization that works well. I just keep the shutter speed a minimum of 2X the focal length and I am usually OK. [/QUOTE]
