You ARE mistaken, as the lens probably designed by Tamron is FA 28-105/4-5.6 [IF], but the question was about FA 28-105/3.2-4.5 AL [IF], that has design similar to the 24-90 and looks the same out. This lens is built better than 27-70/4 IMHO, all rings moves smoothly, AF is fast and not loud. But I can say nothing about its optical quality, as I have only playing with it in the shop.
