    Ive got the Tammy 11-18 and under certain conditions its Chromatic Abberation is BAD, but it only occurs occassionally. So i hope they resolve this with the new one

    They should be fixing the problem with CA on this one...but we'll have to wait and see...one of 2 things will happen (I hope)...

    1. The tammie comes out with awesome reviews and I get it.
    2. The tammie comes out and the prices of the 2nd hand siggie drop and I can have it cheap!

    It normally refers to lenses of a design which provides light rays to strike the sensor at right angles (or close to).

    A design used to reduce vignetting.

    Anyone have any experience with the Tamron SP AF 10-24mm f / 3.5-4.5 DI II Zoom Lens For Pentax DSLR Cameras? B&H and Adorama currently are offering a $100 US rebate until 10 Oct.
