Mine just arrived yesterday. :)
I'm a bit surprised at the lack of activity here on this lens. I'm barely an amateur but I have put up with my 28-75 long enough and needed a wider lens. This fit the bill and then some.

Sorry, I haven't just yet, but the 17-50 is at the top of my list.

Thank you all very much for the useful replies! It has confirmed my research so far that the Tamron 17-70 is what I may try first. I also see primes in my future but I better learn to use this thing first.
I did say that I'd post up a pic and I will this weekend. I was too tired after work yesterday. This will give me a chance to see if I can get better pics from the kit lens before $ is spent. Looking forward to it.

Thanks Marc!
I see you are very active over here as well.
Ok, I vowed to get off my @$$ and start using my camera more. To the casual shooter that has just now gone from a point and shoot to a DSLR it's very common to shoot only when a situation calls for it and that typically means we are never quite ready.
I, knowing absolutely nothing, will take 5 or so min to take test shots until I get it right. When I have this kind of time my pics usually come out very nice (although, I also don't know a thing about proper or pleasing composure-that's for another thread).
Being ignorant, my quick shots are always worse than my wifes using her Canon D620.... Ouch.
What I'm getting at, eventually, is that I'm somewhat of an introvert and typically lurk. I don't mind posting up a shot if my extreme ignorance doesn't eventually get to you. :D
Possibly, over the course of a year I'd hope to be able to share a pic showing a dramatic difference for the better...you'll have to bear with me though.
I'll find a pic to embarrass myself with later tonight.

Along the lines of me looking for a zoom that's sharp at f2.8 am I far off in thinking that if sharp there it should be similarly as sharp throughout?
I realize what I really need is a prime for around the house but I cannot afford both and I'll first need to fix what's bugging me most... the oem 18-55.
