    Yeah, we should!

    Tom, I have to say I'm pretty impressed with the level of detail my cheap 55-200mm lens is achieving.
    You do have to admit, the results are better than expected.

    Sure, it's softer wide-open, but that's not inherently a bad thing, especially for portraits. Besides, who would shoot landscapes at a wide-open aperture?

    The Sony/Tamron 55-200 is quite a respectable lens, and quite a bargain.

    The need to shoot is like a chronic disease, it just won't go away!
