I bought Tamron (I call it Tammy) 17-50 as substitute lens of 18-55 lens which came boxed with my Canon 550D.
After attaching 17-50 to my 550D, I have rarely replaced it for day to day shooting. The image sharpness and low light performance is wonderful. As I can not afford L-lens, this lens gave me outstanding performance. Also, because of this lens, my clicks are getting good review. The focusing is quite good. The weight of this lens has added stability in my hands while shooting. My friends who has borrowed this lens from me also want to buy it. Really good value for money.
Due to constant aperture 2.8 from 17 to 50mm range, I am able to use this fast lens in low light as well and still got excellent results. Therefore, very good for indoor and street photography specially in low light.
The lens comes with hood also which is quite handy and easy to keep in bag while not in use.
I purchased this lens from Flipkart and the shipping time and packaging was excellent.
This lens is very sharp and focuses quite well in AF. It is somewhat heavy and seems solidly built.
AF hunts a little bit in low light, but I suppose that's common to quite a few lenses. Also, there's some lens flare when shooting into the sun, but not too much and I don't mind it so much.
All in all, I'm happy with the lens and use it as my primary lens on my EOS 30D.
Pros
1 Best value for money versatile zoom with constant aperture throughout the zoom range
2 Sharp...extremely sharp between F/4 and F/8 apertures
3 Lightweight, easy to carry the whole day
Cons
1 Bit soft at F/2.8 compared to similar Nikon/Canon offerings
2 Slow to focus due to the micro motor. Slow to focus in tracking mode.
3 Hunts in low light
This lens is performs excellently as per my expectation. Images are pretty sharp and fits perfectly into my kind of photography - nature, sunsets, architectures.
As usual the service quality and quickness of flipcart is par excellent
