Sigma vs Tamron

Test reports are a good guide - but will probably confuse also. It will depend on the lens rather than manufacturer. I notice on the 70 ~ 200mm lens tested the Tamron clearly beat the Sigma and Nikon. On the 18 ~ 200mm the Nikon was marginally better - but at nearly double the price. The Sigma and Tamron were equal with one slightly better in one area and the other better in another area. I suspect the variations will continue for different lens.
I use the Tamron 18 ~ 200mm as a walkabout lens and a neighbour - a member of the RPS and judge - uses the 18 ~ 270mm Tamron.
