...reading the comments here, I like to give some more info about the circumstances at the 28th of April when trying the new Tamron lens:
A: The photo exhibition was on a ship at the "Zürichsee" lake.
B: The Tamron Switzerland (Perrot Image) sales guy told me the lens
was not representing final quality, but a "pre-serial-production-sample"
with obvious uneven lens barrel finish.
C: The sales guy first hesitated about letting me try this sample on my 7RM3.
D: I was not allowed to go anywere with the lens, he was hanging around
me the short time I used for taking the pictures.
E: I just wanted to try some pictures at f2.8 and medium apture, with autofocus
point selected by the camera itself.
F: The scene from the boat, with water up front, then the pier close by, and
the angled bridge in the backround is not that ideal to judge the lens.
G: I don't know if the upload/download at google drive have influence on
the picture quality.
I believe this lens performance/price balance on the serial production units
will make it a welcomed alternative for many.
