Just bought this lens. I was looking at both the Sigma and Tamaron but the reviews on the Tamaron looked better.

Any comments on my choise? Anybody else have the same?

I have the Tamron 18-250 (for a Sony a230)and think its great in a wide range of areas. I bought it to replace the Sony 18-55 & 55-200 lenses and although it is slower than the Sonys I no longer miss shots because the wrong lens is on the camera or worse still I'm in the middle of changing lenses when a shot (like wildlife) passes by. I hope this helps.
