It's essential to make a clear cut decision about buying what you need or what you want.If the money is tight, why not buy the 70-300 VR. This lens is excellent (except around 300mm) but can be bought for around 400.00$. This is a third of what a Tamron would cost you. When you get to the point where you NEED the 2.8 lens, you sell the 70-300 and get the one you've wanted for so long.As far as I'm concerned, I kept the 70-300 because of it's size and weight. So I still have the choice of what I carry.Good luck Shopping.</blockquote>
