It has nothing to do with Canon Fanaticism... When I want to buy a Jeep, I dont go test driving and looking at a Dodge cause it has the same engine... There 2 different products, looking at results for one, and then thinking what you are going to get will be the exact same is asinine.
Well
I think you are buying the Tamron, Not the Nikon
Is the same lens.
Even if you argue that Nikon has slight different color than Canon, that argument is not applicable by the simple fact of the different users using different softwares, and taking and processing different RAW or Jpegs and simply moving the saturation and contrast slider in a different way.
Now, if we where to talk about AF speed, or accuracy, I would agree completely that we need to test it on a Canon body
And we are just looking at different pictures taken with the lens to have a rough idea of what the lens is capable, not a real test / comparison.
Life is too short..I guess you will just have to wait till the Canon mount is widely available to have an impression on this lens
So far, I like what I see, It looks like a promising lens, but we all know that since we are reading this thread.
