tamron lenses are seriously underrated. I'll take a Tamron over Sony most of the time. For years they were the OEM for Zenza Bronica (a medium format camera) and collaborated with both Zeiss and Leica on lens design.Ended up with a used Sony A73 and used Tamron 28-75 f2.8. Still playing around and getting used to all the settings. Light years ahead of my older DSLR in every aspect.

They were one of the first to create a viable adapter to let their lenses be used on multiple cameras (Adapt-A-Matic) in the 60's and the AdaptAll system that fully incorporated the functions of OE lenses by using a thin aluminum adapter ring. I still have an old 18mm 2.8 Tamron that fir on my Nikon F2, my Pentax Spotmatic and my Canon A1.
