You better get that lens or you'll be walking around with that camera body in your hands cursing the world that you can't take pictures!!!! At least I am impatient that way.
I like the lens. I have used the stock 18-55 canon and the canon 70-300IS as well and I have not noticed any auto focus problems yet. But, I'm not a pro by any means so take that for what its worth. I've gotten some really spectacular shots with that lens though, so I'm happy. Beats paying for the Canon L glass.
Well the lady who hired me yesterday to video her daughters wedding which is this Saturday (their hired videographer backed out?) ended up stopping back out today and booked me in addition tot he $1800 package to do a Bridal Prep and project a montage at the reception so with all that her total package cam to $2300 which bought me the lens (Tamron), 20D, 1GB memory, Bogen 503 Video Head & Bogen 3246 sticks. Christmas in September! It should all be here tomorrow or Friday! I'll post some pics when I get the camera for sure. Thanks for all your help! I'm so excited!
Also another reason why I'm excited is that the mother showed me the package that they bought with the photog and it was her middle of the road package @ $3600! I'm going to be that guy some day, sooner rather than later!

What are your feelings with the lens and using the auto focus? It was mentioned that it takes much longer to focus than the Canon lens do...any input on that?
