To me it was just too bulky and for some reason, can't explain, I just didn't like the feel.

Got a great deal through the military PX system on a Sigma 18-200. Again I can't explain why, but I really like this lens. Took over 100 photos at a Swing Dance party this weekend. None worthy of posting on this site, as I am no where near the expert most of ya'll are.

I can really see where this lens will become my everyday lens over the kit 18-55 lens.

Canon Rebel XS.

For what it's worth, I too prefer the "feel" of Sigma's over Tamrons.

Thanks for the vote of confidence. To me that lens seemed to balance the camera.
