I was able to get a great price on a like new Tamron 24-70 VC from a repautable seller. The lens has no issues, however it is grey market which I know Tamron will absolutely not touch even if the repair is not under warranty. I'm just curious if in the future, it were to need any sort of work, if there was any repair shops that will give it a go? My understanding is Tamron doesn't even supply parts to dealers unless the camera is US.

Sorry I can't help you, but I am curious as to why you would purchase that lens with a Canon 24-70 f/2.8L II in your sig.

My sig is beyond outdated. I guess I should update that.
