Tamron 17-50 F/2.8 - Why it's the BEST Lens for Beginners on a budget

This lens is probably the BEST lens for you if you're on a budget and if you're new to photography. When a $2500 lens is out of your budget, this lens is a solid option.

Goods:
+ Cheap!
+ F/2.8 zoom lens
+ lightweight and portable

Bads:
- Not too sharp
- Used ones are not in best shape
- No Vibration Control

If you've had this lens, please leave a comment and share your experiences with it. I know it's an older lens and the one I have isn't in the best shape but seriously wished I started out with this lens!
