Just got this beauty, and man is it made like a tank, less weighty and almost the same length as the latest canon 70-200 f2.8 IS II). Sharpness is excellent, and better than my old Canon 70-200 f2.8 IS (the original). High contrast images and very fast focusing. Creamy bokeh.

excellent performance; high quality build,super VC; great price

heavy

After reading reviews I took the plunge. Haven't regretted it for one minute

Great Picture Quality; Simple Controls

Images are very sharp! I use this lens on my Nikon D7100 and the two work perfectly together as a couple. The autofocus of this lens is of decent speed and the zooming is very smooth.

I bought this lens to replace the 70-200mm f/4l Canon I had. I am kicking myself for NOT doing it sooner!! Honestly, I should have just saved and bought this first. It is a solid solid lens no joke. The color is amazing, it's razor sharp, killer in low light, and just does what it's supposed to.

Razor Sharp; Superb Color; Has VC; Affordable; and a 6yr Warranty too

Not a single one

The wide f/2.8 aperture and built-in image stabilisation make this lens one to consider if you regularly shoot in low-light conditions, and it's significantly cheaper than equivalent rivals from Canon, Nikon and Sony.

Tamron has launched some excellent Super Performance lenses of late, one of our favourites being the SP 24-70mm f/2.8 Di VC USD. The 70-200mm follows suit, with a truly professional feel.

Excellent performance; Sheer value for money; Fast AF and effective image stabilization

Big and heavy (though typical for 70-200mm f/2.8; Large 77mm filter ring

Best telephoto VFM choice!

Superb sharpness; IQ; VFM

A bit slower AF than Nikkor f/2.8

This fast F2.8 telephoto zoom lens for full-frame SLRs delivers very good image quality and remarkably consistent resolution. The VC (Vibration Compensation) image stabiliser effectively compensates for camera shake in the Canon and Nikon versions of the lens.

not bad, but this one came without a storage bag as others
