28-300/3.5-6.3, that's more like it. Come on, f/4 at 200mm? A snowball's chance in hell at that size.
24-70mm f/2.8

Remember the Tamron 24-135/3.5-5.6 of yore?

Well, maybe something along these lines.
28-200mm f/2.8-5.6 Di III RXD
Interesting aperture at 28mm ... but otherwise ... yawn. 28mm is yesteryear.

Not bad actually as a range, and probably will do well in reviews, however reviews are made on brand new lenses in mint condition
the old Tamron 28-200 was very prone to failures, I have one that I got for free with a film body, it failed very rapidly. The newer 28-300 seems also prone to failures, two of my friends bought one, both lenses rapidly failed.
Also keep in mind Tamron "Lies" about focal length, I expect it to be a 30-180mm (but most makers do the same)
