I just got this in an email and thought I would pass it on:

It’s a pretty big selection of lenses too including the 10-20mm, 70-200mm, 50-500mm, 120-400mm, 18-250mm, 100mm macro and plenty of others. The only one missing is the 150-500mm.

That 10-20mm is calling my name that’s for sure.

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.

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.
