I want to buy either one of the above lens for my Elan7, which one

would you pick? Which lens is better optically? Thank you!

So, you don't want to buy the 28-70/2.8 USM L any more ?

Get the IS and don't look back.

I can't tell you much but remember the IS lens is a slow lens while the Tarmon is a fast lens so you may not need IS. It's up to you.

Here is a review of the Tamron lens in a Minolta mount. It's at the bottom of the page in the reader's comments section. It's the first comment. Make sure you read the rebuttals. Based on the following comments, it seems that the Tamron is a little soft in sharpness quality.

Whilst I dont think anyone minds you asking these questions you have asked about 3 or 4 completely different lens groups in the last few days. do you ever buy these or do just like asking questions that have obvious answers. Tamron OK lens for price compared to Canon lens that will wipe floors with almost all others however costs more same can be said for most 3rd party lenses versus the decent quality Canon lenses.
