Croasdail making stuff up  More info | May 19, 2005 06:36 | #1 My new 28-75 is showing up today but I just noticed it is Tamron Autofocus 28-75mm f2.8 XR Di LD Aspherical (IF) version. I know there is also the non-Aspherical version as well. Is there a big difference between these two - have I ordered the wrong one? On Fred Miranda's site, there is a big difference in the ratings - both do well but the "non" version is rated higher.

May 19, 2005 13:38 | #8 I ordered mine from Amazon.... it was about 30 more then B&H, but I was loosing patience waiting for the good online guys to have it in stock. Still hasn't shown up yet but UPS Tracking says it is out for delivery.....

May 19, 2005 17:31 | #9 It just showed up.... while my wife was out... talk about living good. Anyway - put it on the camera and it seems to be reasonably solid. It's pooring now so I can go shoot yet. But one noticable thing is the AF is noticably louder and somewhat slower then Sigma HSM. Not a big deal for what I am going to use if for... but it is noticable.

Ya the AF speed is probably the biggest weakness.........noise has never been an issue for me, but the AF speed gets in the way if you are shooting moving subjects or shooting low contrast. Other then that, the AF is pretty accurate.
