Anyone got the Tamron SP 24-70mm F/2.8 Di VC USD?

I played with a 5D MIII and a Canon 24-70mm, one of the best camera setups I have used (I swear the camera out of focus was as sharp as my little old D5200 in focus ). It didn't take me long to start looking at the Tamron 24-70mm, my question is would this lens be wasted on a cropped sensor?

I think only you can decide whether 35-112mm is a focal range you are going to find useful or not.

Would need to play with it on mine. Or I could just save up and buy the 5D.......

I don't see why you don't just go for the Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM.

I would need to get the Tamron 17-50mm f/2.8 VC for mine.

How come?

Surely a Canon won't fit on my D5200 so I would have to get the Nikon which will be too expensive or more likely the equivalent Tamron or Sigma?

Ahhh sorry I thought I read you had a Canon APS-C camera.

The Tamron 17-50mm f/2.8 VC / Sigma 17-50 OS HSM are cheap as chips and have to be worth a try... if you don't like them just return them for a refund.
