Anyone tried the lens? How does it compare to the Tamron Super 2?

IMO....
I don't think the promo's worth it....
The total price is $1488, and it will be cheaper when you go to shops like CP ? AP. Assume that it's $1300.. I think if I'm not wrong, Nikon's offering of their 28-200 is lousier than other 3rd party makers like Tamron's XR version. There were no revisions made to the lens since it was introduced a very long time ago.. guys, correct me if I'm wrong. A F80 body costs like $680, a Tamron 28 - 200 XR costs $470... So it's ard $1000+? But if you are counting the free gifts in, it's ok la. But I certainly don't need the vest and tripod though.... Last edited by SNAG; 25th October 2002 at 02:44 PM. |

That's just the RRP. If you go to CP, you'd still get the bundle at a lower price.
Just like when i got my F65 bundle this march. the rrp was $788, but i bought it for $670+ (inclusive of GST) at CP. Just get an e-quote from CP and check it out. |

True, the actual price by CP / AP will definitely be cheaper....
But one thing, IMO, they are trying to sell out those "not-so-popular products" by bundling them together..... |

A bad eye in photography is still a bad eye in photography no matter how good or sharp one's lenses are.

But with $1320, I think I'll get the Tamron + F80 combo.... I think it's more worth it (excluding the freebies of course) |
