Two new lenses from Tamron

<p>Tamron have a couple of new lenses in the EOS mount. They are part of their redefined "SP" series. There's a 45/1.8 Di VC USD and a 35/1.8 Di VC USD. Both are full frame with stabilization and both have very close focusing (with close range correction).</p>

These lenses look interesting and a comparison with the Tamron 35/1.8 Di VC USD and Canon EF 35 2.0 IS would be interesting. Perhaps Canon should incorporate a blue spectrum refractive element into the lens first. If you add the price of a lens hood to the Canon, pricing is very similar.
