    Any reviews of the NEW Tamron 17-50 2.8 with VC?

    I'm really considering this glass right now. Even at its current high price of 26k, it's still about 40,000 cheaper than the Nikkor option 17-55 2.8 which costs a staggeringly stratospheric P65,000.

    Imagine all the gear one can buy with the P40k change.

    better (in the dark, especially)
    bigger (feels like an UWA, almost as heavy as a 70-200mm)
    more expensive (77mm filter thread)

    Crap, I saw one guy selling a used 16-50mm for 19k last week, over at TPC. I knew that post wasn't going to last long. Sayang.

    Yeah but anyone who has the Nikkor 17-55 f/2.8 will tell you that it's totally worth it. You'll never look at non-Nikkor lens again.

    I agree. I just switched from a Tamron 17-50/2.8 to a Nikkor 17-55/2.8 about 3 weeks ago. I am totally satisfied, particularly with the more accurate and faster autofocus. This is essential when shooting kids.
