A rather decent lens, I was happy with it on my Canon EOS 300D at the time. It did show quite a bit of chromatic aberration at the edges and corners though, highlighted in two of the photos. Lightroom can fix it pretty easily. In retrospect I can also see that the colours from the Tamron are more 'muddy' than my current kit delivers - but then again I have paid through the nose for it. The Tammy does a good job for the price.

All photos have been through Lightroom with my usual development process - nothing fancy - and then resized to 1280 x whatever in Photoshop. No sharpening other than whatever Lightroom does by default.
