Tamron updates 17-50mm lens for shaky hands
September 4th, 2009 | 
Author: Not to be outdone Tamron offers up a wide angle lens with stabilization. The wide angle is still the last lens I want for my collection, but I think I will look more towards the 10-20 or 12-24mm range. But the really cool thing is that stabilization is making it’s way into all sorts of lens models these days.
Tamron has updated its higher-end 17-50mm zoom lens with its vibration compensation technology to counteract camera motion.

Sigma adds 70-300mm to OS range
I have this in the non-OS version. It’s not a bad lens, I just haven’t used it all that much. With the OS I could see this being a pretty decent walk around lens. It would certainly make a nice compliment to the 18-200 or 18-250mm Sigma currently offers. You’d get plenty plenty of range without breaking the bank.
Sigma has bolstered its Optical Stabiliser (OS) lens line-up with the addition of the 70-300mm f/4-5.6 DG OS. The lens, designed for DSLRs with any APS-C size sensor.
