A Very Solid Competitor to Canon L
I bought this lens to replace the 70-200mm f/4l Canon I had. I am kicking myself for NOT doing it sooner!! Honestly, I should have just saved and bought this first. It is a solid solid lens no joke. The color is amazing, it's razor sharp, killer in low light, and just does what it's supposed to.
Pros:
- Razor Sharp
- Superb Color
- Has VC
- Affordable
- and a 6yr Warranty too
Cons:
- Not a single one

Pros:

Technology is catching up with the big performers. Apple is no longer better than Android, Nikon is no longer the big fish in the sea, Tamron has stepped up their game with this lens, in an attempt to turn heads from Nikon 70-200, and it is turning heads, and for good reasons.

I have choosen the Tamron 70-200/2.8 VC because at my workplace we use the same and I was impressed by its performance and durability. We use it as workhorse and its still working- but the zoom rings rubber got expanded so its not wheater sealed for now and not very sexy.
Pros:
- Pretty fast and accurate AF
- good built quality
- very nice iq
- damn good stabilization
- not that pricey
Cons:
- Built quality not as good as Canon 70-200/2.8 also the AF slower (not significantly)
- zoom ring and mf ring reversed
- hard to use with reversed hood
