Hi Joe That's an interesting test, I've noticed very slight PF with the Tamron in high contrast situations, nothing too bad and easy to correct in PS. The sharpness of my sample seems better than the one on test. There's very little vignetting and distortion with the Tamron and it goes full

Yes I am interested in a couple pics, lets say at 70, 135, 200 and 300 (or about of course) to have an idea of sharpness. How is SR effective with it (if your camera provides SR)? Do you own a 50-200 for comparison purpose (I suspect not) ? -- Thibault Massart aka Thibouille

The odd thing is that it pickes f:7,1 with 50-135 x 1,7. So it seem the camera does know how fast the mounted lens is. Another odditiy. Manually changing programline to Normal, gives different values. In MTF it is locked, but in Normal it bumps up and down with the light. So I don't know what to
