Does onyone have any input on Tamron 17-35mm Di LD lens for a 10D.
I noticed there is also a Tamron 17-35mm XR Di, what is the difference.
I know Canon is probably better, but so is the price.

I have never used the 17-35 DI but I do own the 28-75 and I am now a believer in Tamron's DI deisgns, you can take that for what it's worth.

I haven't seen any tests on the 17-35, but the 28-75 tests well.

I don't know about the Tamron 17-35...it is probably a good lens. I have the Sigma 17-35 EX, and it is an excellent lens. Tamron does make some good stuff. I have their 90mm Macro and it is a killer lens.
