No boredom by Tamron's lens announcements here...
..too busy enjoying the the G2 Tamron 150-600mm........Tamron have done a great job upgrading it, I officially vote it the best of that series of sports/nature zooms!
then they announce two new G2 versions of the 70-200mm and the 10-24mm the latter was not a great lens in it's original form being very soft in the corners at 10mm leaving Sigma to clean up with their 10-20mm F4/5.6 version.
Both Tamron and Sigma have some elderly zooms that need refreshing, I'm still wondering who be fastest on the draw for a standard 16-50mm F2.8 zoom, there still isn't a full feature manual focus override version in the third party manufacturer world.
