What are your thoughts on it? I'm also thinking of picking up this lens over the 24-70.

Yeah ... he bought mine, and he's going to love it. I owned the 35-70 f/2.8 for a while. It's a fine lens, but I found the Tam 28-75 to have slightly better contrast and color. I also preferred the Tam over my Canon 24-70.

The 35-70 is also heavier, has a rolling element that always annoyed me, and the focal lengths proved to be too limiting. A fine lens, though. Got some good shots out of it. Actually, it performed better on my 5D w/adapter than it did on my D2x. Go figure.

Still, overall, I got better shots out of the 28-75.
