So, yeah, I fully expect everyone here to tell me how bad of a copy I received and to send it back immediately. Poor Tamron.

Poor Tamron. it looks ok. your first shot has a tad amount of motion blur. You should shoot it like how you shoot a regular 24-70mm, with good shutter. If you're shooting anything less than 160, you should double or triple snap, and pick the best. IS/VC can only do so much, 1/40 is really low territory for non static photography. Your ISO is kind of high for these shots. Sony A7siii/A7iv/ZV-1 - FE 24/1.4 - SY 24/2.8 - FE 35/2.8 - FE 50/1.8 - FE 85/1.8 - F 600/5.6 - CZ 100-300 - Tamron 17-28/2.8 - 28-75/2.8 - 28-200 RXD

You do know you will get similar results with the canon 24-70L with the a same settings (less the shutter speeds of course) with the sharpness turned down to 0. The tamron has been documented to be sharper in the center than the canon so you would most likely be upset should you purchase the 24-70mk1 and hoping for sharper center shots. Flickr

Great lens for video. Hey dude, thanks for sharing that video. I appreciate you taking the time to use the lens in various conditions! ...BECAUSE SEEKING VALIDATION FROM ANOTHER PHOTOGRAPHER IS WAY MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE OPINIONS OF PAID CLIENTS.

How sharp it is can be another story. _

It's a good lens, but it's too big and not that sharp at 2.8. Or I might just get those 1.4-s: 35 and 50 and call it a day Camera: EOS 5D Mark III, EOS 70D, ™24-70mm f2.8 VC, EF 70-200mm IS f2.8 L II, EF 100mm IS f2.8 L Macro, EF-S 18-135 STM, Σ 12-24 II.
