Do a simple search; you will find many have bought it, and then sold it .. me being one of them.
The question is, why sell it

I had the Tamron 24-70 2.8
That's a new one on me.
Mmm, ok, what's the answer?
curious to this too?
I bought the lens about 6 months ago.
It looks like a pro lens, it feels like a pro lens, it takes pics like a pro lens.
It weighs like 10 pro lens.
If you need the quality at that focal length, then buy the lens.
My fave lens by far, I use it for 95% of my photos. Love it.
Guessing it is your landscape lens just like me
Anybody any experience of the Tamron 28-75mm F2.8 on a D700? Due to lack of funds I am considering it until I buy the nikon 24-70...
Well neither is a solution. I want to use the filter at 14mm, on Full Frame, with filters. Someone somewhere must be able to do it
The last message in the first thread actually points out that Cokin X-Pro will not vignette on FX on 14mm - but then you will have other problems (reflections). Those other problems however, I have seen been sorted in another thread by using the wide angle hoods (Lee one or somebody elses).
There is also a simpler solution (Lee Frost filters book) - attach a square filter (or filters) dirtectly to the lens hood (blue tack is your friend here) and use wide angle hood from one of those large square filter systems to keep reflections away. This will easily allow to use ND and ND grads with minimal vignetting (none at all if sufficiently large filters) which is what you need at 14mm (surely no polariser at 14mm)
Cheers,
that helps a lot. So other than reflections, there is a solution? And in order to loose the reflections, we simply need shade?
This is sounding very good
Well there is a drawback - you will need to invest in a large filter system and carry them around as added weight . I am sure the results will be worth it though. Try to google up the shading/filters for this lens, I am sure I have seen it relatively recently on a web somewhere (didn't took a bookmark unfortunately so can't point you out directly).
