Age of Empires III The War Chiefs: A nice but minimal expansion

Date of Review:  Oct 18, 2007
The Bottom Line: The expansion is decent but not great. It does add value to the game and a little more playing time but nothing really big or much different.
Review: UPDATE 1/3/2008 - Please Note: I have moved this review several times back to its proper location and Epinions keeps on misplacing it in the wrong categories. I am moving it this one last time and then I REFUSE to move it anymore. If you come across...

Expensive results from a cheap package

Date of Review:  May 25, 2006
The Bottom Line: Excellent value with image quality rivaling Canon's 24-70L
Review: Introduction:
As a working professional, the hunt for the perfect capture is a never ending process. As much as I hate reviewing and searching for equipment (I would rather be out shooting), it's a part of life when the quality of your images...

if you could have only 1 lens

Date of Review:  Nov 3, 2005
The Bottom Line: If you could have only one lens and had to live it every day - this is it
Review: Tamron XR DI 28-75. I was looking for a general purpose lens to keep on a Canon 20D body most of the time. My requirements were, slight wide angle to short telephoto. Medium weight, nothing too heavy, but not something flimsy either. Fast, had to be...

Good Value for the Money

Date of Review:  May 3, 2007
The Bottom Line: Good lens for the money. Don't expect the best and you will be happy.
Review: Is it as sharp as the Nikon 28-70 - no way. As Clear and Brilliant as the Nikon 28-70 No Way. But, at 1/4 the cost, it is a good starter lens.

It seemed to hold it's 2.8 maximum aperture throughout the entire zoom range. It is built a bit...

Very sharp, light, bargain price.

Date of Review:  Apr 11, 2005
Review: A lot of people compare this lens to the more expensive canon 24-70 f2.8 L which cost 3 times as much as this lens. Having never used L glass I can make no such comparison. I can say my experience with this lens has been excellent. This lens...

Excellent For The Price

Date of Review:  Jan 19, 2008
Review: I bought this rangefinder to replace a lost Bushnell model. The 440 is awesome. On closer ranges it will actually split and indicate the 1/2 yard. I mainly use it for hunting. I tried some experiments ranging known targets from my stand. I checked...

An average lens

Date of Review:  Feb 17, 2006
Review: An average lens for the cost.

The image blurs at f2.8 75mm.

Gets you very good quality image when there is enough light.

I found there are times that I wish the zoom range is wider on either ends.

Sharp! Great Lens...but hard to find a good copy.

Date of Review:  Aug 16, 2006
Review: I debated between getting this lens versus the more expensive Canon "L" lens equivalent, the Canon 24-70mm f/2.8 Lens.

I eventually bought the Tamron since all the reviews raved about it. But be warned, all the forums cautioned about bad...

UMM okay the other reviewer has no idea what this lens is made for.

Date of Review:  Oct 3, 2008
The Bottom Line: If you know photography then this is no slouch in the performance arena and its not leaving you with a lens that only works on APS-C digital SLR's. 
Review: This is a 35MM or full frame lens optimized for digital photography. THIS IS NOT AN APS-C FORMAT LENS.

Therefore it is only giving a 44mm to 108MM zoom range on a DSLR APS-c format camera body with the smaller sensors.

So of course it...

Best buy

Date of Review:  Oct 6, 2006
Review: This lens is the workhorse lens in my bag. I find it light but solid and it performs flawlessly. Good contrast and sharpness...constant 2.8. It's a usable 2.8 too. I was reluctant to buy a non Canon at first...this was my first non OEM lens...
