Sigma is coming out with 17-50/2.8 OS

Existing line up close to 17-55/2.8:

Sigma 17-70/2.8-4.5 DC macro
Sigma 17-70/2.8-4 DC OS
Sigma 18-50/2.8 EX DC macro

I believe Digital Walker Zoom in GB5 sells Tammy's....

it's 17-50 dude!
uhmm... yeah Charlie has 'em (Digital Walker/Zoom) though I think they only have the one with VR.
Try Mayers at Hidalgo, too.

pixel pro also has tamron lenses.

The Tamron 17-50/2.8 is a great lens. Bang for your buck.
I believe the the newest version has VC (their version of the VR fearure of Nikkor lenses).

Digital Walker Zoom, Pixel Pro

Good luck.

DW Zoom@Greenbelt 5 has Tamron lenses. that's where i bought my 28-75mm f2.8 lens at a discounted price of 3K.

Nice lens! Value for money! Make one question if the Canon 18 - 55mm 2.8F is worth it.

Will point you to the same place DW@ Greenbelt 5.

my neighbor got a pre-owned 17-50 f2.8 No BIM version yesterday for 12,500 . He returned it asap because the pictures produced were soft. we tested 2.8, f4, f8. same results. a lemon copy perhaps. If you're interested check out pipho forum.

try the sigma 14mm f2.8 for full frame UWA goodness. One of the cheap alternatives to canon's 14mm f2.8. The sigma 14mm is pretty sharp if you get a good copy. You can only spot this lens on the second hand market as they are now discontinued.
