Yes, Micah. Tamron 28-75 is constant f2.8 throughout the range. Although there is certain sample variation in Tamron lenses as well, my sample is extremely good. I get pretty sharp (like in very sharp) pictures even wide open. This is my common walk-around lens (thanks Tim for piece of excellent advise).
