image quality difference between canon 70-200 vs tamron compared to canon 24-105?

I agree very hard to see the difference. There is no reason to be nervous buying a lens, buy it second hand and when you want something different sell it and buy something else. Every lens and in many cases an individual lens has some pros and cons, but don't worry about the color nobody will be bothered by the very small differences. Don't worry about sharpness for video because it is in most cases not a issue.
the old tamron sucked at focussing....i never liked it but the image quality was great. Canon f4 is much smaller and that makes a real difference ( i even dropped my 2.8 because it becomes heave after logging it the whole day lol )
Maybe you also wanna condider sigma os version which is good and focuses good....just find one with a good price on the secondhand market ...not happy play with it ..sell it and buy another

See if this will answer your question,
Depending on how sensitive you are to the color or other things, but most normal human client is very difficult to tell which lens you actually use buy watching the end product.
I have used Tamron lens from time to time, most recently I own the 24-70VC 150-600VC . Picture quality is fine if you can accept the 24-105L( acture the new tamron 24-70 VC or 70-200VC are better ). I am sure if you are getting an old one it is comparable with similiar lens that were release the same time
Also there are lots of negative comments on the Canon 70-200L (IS) on its reliability in least few years. So serious thoughts before buying. My friend broke hers couple weeks ago. Canon is of very old design (10years) and the tamron new generation of lens( those with 5-7year warrantee) are much better.

If you are planning to get the new Tamron 70-200 or Canon 70-200F4, I will suggest you to get a second hand Canon 70-200L with or without IS, they are great.



Very sad to say, if you get paid for a job a white lens with a red line at the end can get u questions that are less embarrassing.

Finally some answers that are relevant to me!! The lens i am talking about is this: [h=2]Tamron SP 70-200mm F/2.8 Di LD [IF] Macro Fast Telephoto Zoom Lens with Hood For Canon DSLR Camera[/h]
i think this is an old lens but price wise it's affordable with f2.8. As mentioned that it is not good at focusing, for video i will be focusing manually only. Does it suck at manual focus also?
