Do you like the tamron? Im thinking about getting one for my rebel. Does the lack of image stabilzer cause problems at all?

Well in my amateur opinion, I actually really like it. Its a bit heavy and big (I have it on my d60) but that hasn't been that much of a problem for me. It focuses pretty nicely manually and when I get it on my next camera (the d90 replacement) I think it will be better because of the internal AF motor. My mom actually bought it so I never really did any research on competing lenses.

Lack of image stabilizer hasn't been a problem for me. I have only shot in daylight with it, so no slow shutter speeds really so to be honest I couldn't tell you how much of a problem it would be. So overall, it is an ok lens. For the money though, I would spend it on something else. or maybe a used lens.
