Tamron AF 70-300mm OR Canon EF 75-300mm lens for Canon 450D?
Really want to get a long distance zoom lens for my Canon 450D as my current one is only 18-55mm.
Either can you suggest any good ones that fit the Canon 450D or which of these two do you think is the better option.
Both cost very similar amounts so that isn't so much of an issue.
Thanks, Dan
Oh, and heres some links..

Please take all 3 into consideration plus your own knowledge, thanks guys.
Hi Dan
I use a Rebel XS (1000D) and I have a Tamron 18-200. For the most part it's okay but it has some issues. I don't know if these are specific to this lens, the 18-200 in general or Tamron as a whole.
My 18-200 has aberration issues with pinkish edging at full zoom out at the left side of the frame.
It doesn't very often grab focus correctly at the lower f/stops - 5 and below.
It fits my Canon body and everything works but the focus issue is really a nightmare.
It is, however, an excellent time exposure lens, like this.
It does pretty well in full sun but if you download and magnify this shot you'll see heavy aberrations to the lower left where all the people are.
So last week, tired of this stuff, I bought a Canon 28-200 and all these issues went away. Take a look at the crisp focus of this lens.
Simple comparison between this and the balloon shot and you'll see the difference in the optics right away.
I'm not speaking against Tamron but from my experience this Canon lens is far better than the Tamron that I own.
Also, I do own a Canon 75-300. I think the optics are fine but the zoom is a little stiff. Again I don't know if it's this particular lens or not.
