I did a quick search and did not see them. I know I input them awhile back.
We were burgled and they took my camera (and a couple lens).
thanks,

Excellent advice. If the next lens has the same problem I'll make sure to have them fix it (I assume that would entail me sending it to Tamron instead of B&H).
It was approximately the same time as the previous game (an hour difference) and it was on the same field so with me on the same side of the field and distance from the field. The difference is small but I thought it was odd and that any difference (however slight) would have been in the other direction.
thanks,

It sucks that my roll of the dice came up snake-eyes on this lens, but B&H has made the process of return so easy that I do not regret the purchase.

Lurker for awhile, just registered and have a couple of questions regarding my new Tamron 70-200 F2.8 lens.
My camera body is a Pentax K100D. I've probably shot 200 images a soccer game since I have purchased it. I've got 2 kids so I have 2 games every Saturday. The lens I was using for this prior was the Pentax 50-200 F4-5.6 lens. Very happy with the images.
So this Saturday we had our first game at 8am (one of the reasons I purchased the new lens. The pictures turned out great with the new Tamron lens.
The next game was at 11am. Full Texas sun. I noticed while shooting at 1/350 that my F-stop was only at 13 when usually with my Pentax lens it would be around 22. I would think the opposite would be true (smaller aperture for the faster glass).
Any ideas?
The other is a bit disheartening....
About halfway through the second soccer game the aperture stuck in the full open position. Of course since I turned off the display on the back to save battery I had no idea it had happened until got home :( The fine folks at B&H Photo have sent me an RMA # and have made the entire process VERY easy. I knew there was a problem with this but I was hoping I would avoid it.
How many with this experience had to return the 2nd lens for the same reason?
Sorry for the long first post :D
thanks,
lee
