Title: Does the job at a fair price
Product review: Very pleased with this purchase. It is the cheapest in its class, costing much less than the Nikon equivalent, but produces first class images. I need the wide aperture for working in low light in a jazz club; this does the job perfectly whether I set it manually or use the P mode.My only criticism is that the zoom action is quite stiff. Tamron had been criticised earlier for too free an action, necessitating the use of a lock to hold it in place. Judging by the one I have they have overdone the correction. However it is usable, and I have no hesitation in recommending it. If you can't afford the Nikon lens (and who can?) go ahead and buy this one.
