The Tamron SP lenses are amazing. I have been using the 70-200 and the 24-70 for about 15 months taking
several thousand pictures, primarily event photography, some weddings, etc. I use the lenses on the 7D, the 70D and the 6D for both still and video. Last week I received the highly acclaimed, sought after and hard to get Tamron 150-600
which is as amazing as the other two. I was wait listed with three different vendors.
With the different bodies I have the backup I need and the zoom range for tremendous flexibility creativity. All three work very well for video as half of my jobs are video. All are VC. Total price for all three is about $3918. + tax, they all have 6 year Tamron warranties.
The Canon EF lenses you mention do not appear to be version II. I love to do testing and micro adjustments so that was an enjoyable process confirming that the lenses are working as best as they can with each camera. I am a systems engineer by nature and profession. My research lead me to this combination and your research will lead you to what is right for you. I think you have started with the right questions, now you just need to find the confirmation you seek.
Other lenses: Canon 50mm 1.8, Canon 50mm 2.5 macro, Tokina 11-16mm, Tamron 28-75mm, Tamron 17-50mm
