Yes, what Maigi said. Both companies are about on equal footing. THey are both thrird party and put out a very good product.

On Sigma, I have a 28-200 which does well for me, yet the 28-300 has not served me well and I will be selling it. On Tamron, I have a 28-75 2.8 which is excellent, but the 18-250 is to me an average performer. It's just that you have the good range for vacations and general walkaround, plus macro capability. It all depends what you shoot. I use the 28-75 mainly for food shots and still life. You need to select your focal length and aperture needs, then look at the individual lens tests.

You would probably get more responses in the appropriate forum for this.

I suspect, it's a bit similar topic as Which Is Better Canon Or Nikon? If you'll ask me, it's simple - Canon and Tamron are better. :)) But if you ask, why, I can say only - because I haven't ever had Nikon or Sigma... oh well... but without joking - I think they are equal brands. If you want to compare lenses, you have to select particular lenses and read reviews (www.fredmiranda.com). Some Tamron lens are better than corresponding Sigma lens and vice versa - some Sigma lens are better than similar Tamron lens.
