I know of several pros. who have a couple Tamron lenses and haven't had any problems, EXCEPT with some of the old lenses not being compatible with newer bodies (Canon and Nikon). There ARE some problems with Tamron lenses working properly on Canon bodies, but I'd agree that they are better than Sigma.
