Tamron sp af 70 200mm f 2 8 di ld if macro vs canon 70 200mm f 2 8?

This site doesn't have a page for Canon's 70-200mm f/2.8, so I can't compare the two on specs or price. Here's what I can tell you about the Tamron. It's an older f/2.8 telephoto zoom with a macro mode and no image stabilisation. It fits Canon EF, Nikon F and Pentax K mounts. On full frame it frames as 70-200mm, and on Canon APS-C bodies it behaves like about 112-320mm.

Without stabilisation, you'll want a fast shutter speed for handheld shooting, so it suits good light or a tripod. For people, a 70-200mm f/2.8 gives the flattering working distance described in Portraits. For sport and wildlife reach, see Wildlife and sport.

For the full list of cameras it fits, see the Tamron SP AF 70-200mm f/2.8 Di LD (IF) Macro page.
