I vote for nikon.
Better construction and you dont have that problem about buying a "bad copy".
Tamron perform better at 300mm. But nikon is very sharp until 200mm. Its hard to beat.
Like i said in another topic, I am giving a very good use to this lens to portrait shots at wide open or in 100~150mm...
VR is very effective.
You can check my topic with some sampes:
