Question: I am new to photography so was wondering if it would work on my D90 for sports
Document: Lenses are investments for people in photography. I'm a Canon guy. I have used and abused my Canon lenses like hell. They still work perfectly until now. I won't ever consider buying lenses outside of Canon in the near future.
After using the new Tamaron lens for about 10 days and comparing it directly with my A001 Tamron, it was an easy decision to return the new lens and keep using my old Tamron.It's tough to rank these three lenses. I believe the Nikon VRII is the best lens, but it also costs the most and is larger than either Tamron. The A001 is the cheapest by far, the lightest, and does take great pictures if you can work around the lack of vibration control.
I have a very generous spouse. It is from this generosity that I have actually owned all three of these 70-200 f/2.8 lenses.Photography is a hobby for me and lenses like this are honestly beyond my skills to fully exploit. It would be like giving me a Ferrari. I could drive it fast, but not as fast as an F1 driver could.
It seems to work quite well in fact. It is very QUIET with smooth liquid turning that locks onto target most of the time with accuracy. Not always, but neither does my Nikon. I would say that the VR1 is very comparable. No better or worse from my use so far.
For anything beyond 4.0 the lens is extremely sharp, and I would have no hesitancy shooting at 2.8 unless you're going to take a 100% crop and expect the hair on someone's head to be prime-level sharp.Autofocus - The autofocus is fast. I would imagine that unless you're a pro sports photographer whose job depends on getting every shot, this lens's autofocus is plenty fast.
First off, I am an amateur and don't get paid for the pictures I take. For this reason, I figured I would give the Tamron a try and if I didn't like it I could always return it and consider getting one of the Nikon 70-200's instead. I'm using this lens with a D600, and have admittedly never used the Nikon 70-200 2.8 VR I or II, or the new 70-200 F4.
You will not regret this. It is the best buy I have made in photography gear and it made the most difference in the quality of the photos, not to mention with the lens hood this thing looks intimidating, serious and totally professional.
The solid build of a lens that doesn't change external dimensions when zoomed is a nice feeling, the instant AF is stunning, and the critical sharpness edge to edge (I use a D90 with a 12mp DX sensor) is empowering. This lens excels in these areas, and it offers it all at a great price.
This is why you get this lens for sport, BIF and other action photography.+++Price, enough said. Most hobbyist can't afford to spend a prenium. Nikon and canon sell for  30-40% more, is the lens IQ 30-40% better, nope. Maybe 1-5% at most.+ good warranty period like nikkor lenses.Neutral:I think half of the barrel is plastic the other half is metal.
I have bought two Sigma lenses and after a while disappointment, they don't continue to work well. Best to stick with Tamron or Canon.
Answer: It should. I've recently purchased this lens and I've been very pleased with how it well performs. I was particularly impressed with how sharp the focus was and how well it froze the action while shooting a marching band performance at night. Of course you have to turn up your ISO and adjust your settings on your camera.
