To the Tamron 17-50 f/2.8? In terms of build, optic quality, etc. Is there anyone who's used both and can comment?

I've only used the Sigma but I've been very happy with it for the most part; quite sharp and contrasty under most conditions. Highly flare prone, even with the hood on. Significant distortion at the wide end (no surprise). I understand that there are some QC issues with it but my copy is quite good, and 1/2 the price of the equivalent name brand.

Google (or even a DPC forum search) is your friend.
