[QUOTE="Dawg Pics, post: 766469, member: 26505"] Hey all, Thanks for the feedback. [B][SIZE=2]I do have a question for those who understand optics or just experienced users of lenses. Sharpness and contrast of a lens go hand in hand? So can you have a sharp lens that has less than desirable contrast? In low light, a low contrast scene, having a lens that already has poor contrast would be an issue, no? OR does it matter at all since the scene is already low contrast? Sounds like logic, but I am often wrong. [/SIZE][/B] [USER=13196]@hark[/USER] I have looked at many images on Flickr. I have a Tamron, that I loved on my D300. I don't know that I have used it that much on the D500, but it has been a great lens for me. It has been my favorite of the few lenses I own. I am no pro, so take that for what it is.
