tamron 17-50mm or canon 17-40L — help decide good ، tamron 17-50mm or canon 17-40L — help decide good
I’ve pretty much narrowed it down to these two choices.
Tamron 17-50mm f/2.8 non VC:
Pros:
– Less expensive ($450 new)
– f/2.8
– Sharp
– 6 year warranty
Cons:
– Hit or miss build quality?
– How much do I trust tamron’s warranty anyway?
– Noisy / iffy autofocus?
– Will lose value when used, and don’t really want to buy used because of warranty
Canon EF 17-40mm f/4 L
Pros:
– Solid build quality
– Sharp
– Holds value like a boss
– Only ~500-600 used
– USM
Cons:
– Only f/4
– More limited range, although it’s not a huge deal
Right now I’m leaning towards the tamron but I’d like some more input. I’ve used the canon but not the tamron. I am open to other options but I don’t want to spend much more than $500 so the canon 17-55 f/2.8 is out of the question although I want it.
