This Objective is the best in this price range I have used. It works just great, light intensity is good enough, and I found it to be able to accomodate the strangest requests especially at the Cliffs of Mohare in Ireland, Malta and here in my homecountry, the U.S. Even with diffuse light situations, the Tamron still gives you some power to accomplish what you want.
I would personally recommend Tamron Objectives to everybody on a budget. If you need better light intensity you will have to go with a lower spread, which will, depending on the lens you buy, drive the price right up. Tamron is a great Customer Service experience as well.
I just recently bought a Pentax DSLR and this one will be equipped with a Tamron soon.
