[QUOTE="ABoon, post: 325334, member: 25505"] I just wanted to say that I am very happy with my Tamron 70-200 and would recommend it highly. I haven't got the Nikon to compare side-by-side, however in my research and eventual decision to go with the Tamron I watched and read a lot of comparisons online. The Tamron appeared to be equal in almost all respects and on 'DXO' it actually outscores the Nikon. I will point out that my first copy of the Tamron did have a focus motor issue, perhaps Tamron is not as 'consistent' as Nikon. Luckily the store I bought it from recognised the defect and replaced the lens without question. Also many people in my research have suggested that Tamron is extremely good with their customer care which is great if you run into issues. I also should point out that my Tamron had some front focus so I did have to fine tune the AF however my Nikon 50mm 1.8G also suffered from front focus to a similar degree so likely my camera body is to blame. Just wanted to share my experience, at half the price I reckon the Tamron is an easy choice. [/QUOTE]
