I loved the IS on the 17-55 when I had it. Ever since I moved to FF, I was hoping for the 24-70 to have IS. Walkaround lens, 2.8+VC=win!!! “You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him.” --==Gear List & Feedback==--

Dinzdale40 Senior Member  More info | Feb 06, 2012 19:18 | #5 how many stops does Tamrom's VC account for? Are we talking like...less than 1? or 2? 4? I looked in specs but didn't see anything and have no experience with Tamron's VC stuff. -Daniel

All reviews I've seen say Tamron's VC is the most effective of all the stabilisation systems.

But the new lenses they have been putting out are somewhere around 3-4 stops. So we can safely start expecting there. “You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him.” --==Gear List & Feedback==--

How can people be asking that question when one of the lenses is just a rumor and when we know nothing about the iq of the other lens? They asked me how well I understood theoretical physics.
