Hi everybody - could anyone offer an opinion as to whether the Tamron SP 90mm (2.5) macro is any good. I want to get a macro lens but dont know whether to wait...

Hi, I have the Tamron SP 90/2.5 macro and I have to say that it is very good in both build quality, sharpness, and contrast. I also have the Vivitar Series 1...
