As you can see in my signature I have an XS with an 18-55 IS kit lens and Canons cheapo 75-300 (both came with the camera new).
AF18-270mm F/3.5-6.3 XR Di II VC LD Aspherical (IF) Macro; Tamron USA, Inc.
I saw this lens in a magazine on an airplane and I know it's not the highest quality lens made but I thought it would be better to have one lens that basically covers the entire range instead of switching back and forth between the two I have. Plus this has vibration control (I am assuming its Tamrons version of IS) and my 75-300 doesn't. I figured I could sell my two lenses and get a few hundred dollars to put towards this one or should I just keep the two that I have? I just do family type stuff right now and am not going to invest in high dollar lenses. Would the quality of this lens be better, the same, or worse then the two that I have now.
Thanks
