Thanks John

Hi lads, ended up buying the tamron 90mm. So far I am very pleased with it and managed to get a few good shots that i feel are worthy on here 10 looking at them on here is not quite the same as full screen, but its good enough

Hi guys, I have been doing some more research seeing as you reccomend the tamron.

I found this lens on jessops, which seems to be the standard uk price at £369

But I have also found the same lens from digitalrev (grey import company) which is priced at £220

Without sounding like a doughnut, can you guys help me confirm that this is the same lens as its a heck of a lot cheaper! Also have any of you used this company before, it's got hundreds of good reviews but it's always nice to hear it from someone you know.

Thnaks for posting dave I was looking at the canon ef 100mm usm so much cheaper than the one with is, I haven't found a bad word about it so I reckon I will go for that as I do use the 18-55mm for general use. I'm glad you dont need a ring flash for every shot, but will be something I shall buy in the future hopefully. If you didnt realise I added you on Flickr last night, you have a very impressive portfolio

Many thanks for posting, certainly a improvement. Will definitely give this a try when I'm feeling brave enough!

I use a canon 600d, so hopefully I have the right one as £5 is a bit cheaper than £400!
