Massdrop has the Tamron SP 24-70mm f/2.8 Di VC USD G2 for only $850.00. This is an excellent price for this newer “G2” version of the lens. Compare with a regular price of $1199.
Free shipping and Massdrop‘s site indicates that this comes with Tamron’s 6-year warranty. Canon and Nikon mounts are available.
Very good price for a good lens. Been using this lens on my 5D for months, pretty happy with it. If you have a crop sensor camera though, it would be more ideal to go with the 17-55mm F2.8 IS USM instead, which is still discounted to 550. Less expensive with a better wide angle range, which on a standard zoom is usually the more important side of the zoom. I use that lens on an 80D, and definitely appreciate the wider angle of view.
