In simple non-technical terms, can just say the color reproduction is not vivid (i.e. quite pale) even if you bump up the saturation to the max. So, anything lens that touches near 300mm length it's best to invest in an APO, otherwise the lens should just stay in the dry box.

Tamron SP AF17-50mm F/2.8 XR Di-II VC LD Aspherical (IF) Tamron AF17-50mm F/2.8 XR Di II LD Aspherical (IF) It's the same except that the first Tamron is with VC (i.e. Image Stabilizer), it's a new lens but for C & N brands only.

Added on September 17, 2009, 3:40 pm which 50mm? the SAL50M28 macro? IMO. Go for 28-75 only if you have lens that is wider than 28mm which you used often. Otherwise like me, dump it at the side and hardly use it because of the 28mm wide limitation. When you are used to your walkabout lens starting at 16mm, and switched to 28mm... you might regret on this part. 16 and 28 difference, it's huge... better save your mullah for something else. However, if you plan to get a FF along with that lens... then it's different story

Yup, the 1750 makes more sense. Lens value don't depreciate much if you take good care of your lenses, it's better to buy something you use often rather than just dump it aside... like me. thinking of A850

I was just about to offer to buy your 2875... hehehe... Haha, planning to keep it. Still thinking, better wait for 5xx series and try them first before commit. QUOTE(albnok @ Sep 17 2009, 04:49 PM) wha7ever: Why do you have a 28-80mm F3.5-5.6? The 28-75mm F2.8 is already an excellent full-frame lens (it just performs magically better on the A850/A900 - try it!) Then again, maybe not. Or you might set yourself up to discover that the 28-75mm and 50mm pair is all you need. Sell: A300 + 18-70mm = RM1500 18-250mm = RM1400 28-80mm xi = RM300 Hmmm, you still need RM3K more... and maybe you'd want to add a beercan if you miss the telephoto range. Those 3 are respectable optics for the A850! The 28-80xi was given by a friend whom adopted Canon. It's a lens which I left it in the drybox 99% of the time. Not that soon for an upgrade, still considering.

On my way Elite 606 posts Joined: Jan 2003 From: Kuala Lumpur	QUOTE(destfull @ Oct 2 2009, 07:16 PM) then quote me ur 18250 price btw Tamron 18250 vs SAL 18250 or any 16/18-200/250 who wins eh? Any recommendation? Between the two (Tamron & Sony), definitely it's the Sony since Sony uses Tamron Technology and put some of their own magic into it. I think the best would the the Sigma (not tested and don't think anyone here owns it). I read it at DPReview (http://www.dpreview.com/news/0906/09061804sigma.asp), it has HSM and incorporates a Hybrid OS (Optical Stabilizer). @shootkk : I got one request if you don't mind, can show some sample pics results of A850 (APS-C mode) + SAL18250?
