Why did you choose Sigma over Tamron? Thanks
Recently I purchased this Tamron lens and am very pleased with the results.

The Sigma is smaller. That's my only reason.
Granted, it is smaller because it stops at 70mm, but watching comparisons online, 5mm makes a huge difference on the wide end but oddly negligible difference on the Tele end.
So I knew I would have essentially the same lens utility but smaller. I care a lot about keeping my set on the smaller side so I use it more often.
But the Tamron is great and is the reason Sigma even made their similar version - I wouldn't switch if the small size difference isn't as bothersome for you.
And since the lens in this deal is part of a series for both Sigma and Tamron: Ironically, I picked the Tamron 17-28mm f2.8 for my wide lens because in that range, Tamron makes the smaller lens compared to Sigma's new 16-28mm f2.8.
So I'm not brand loyal, I think both are amazing value in this line of full-frame zooms. I don't like Sigma and Tamron's higher end lenses honestly due to weight of the metal, so I love their recent race to offer sets of full frame ranges in smaller bodies.

Great. Thanks for the detailed explanation.
My reason for picking this Tamron was the price - $680 (15% cash back deal) + tax.
My next lens will be 17-28mm Tammy :-)
