I have been reading quite a bit about these lens and it appears that Tameron has the edge. Has anyone used the Tameron?
Thanks

The Tamron VC G2 is magnificent. Tamrons image quality these days leaves nothing to be desired, and always at a great price point

All three lenses are very good lenses. The difference between them at an image level is almost negligible. My recommendation is to consider the cost and warranty of the three lenses. The one that gives you the best warranty and has a reasonable price is the one to go with, and that would be the Tamron.

I have my Tamron SP 24-70 F/2.8 G2 for only one day. I'm very happy but as you know, one day is very not a long time. I've used the Tamron SP 45mm f/1.8 for a month and it works great. (both used on the Nikon D850).
When I owned the Nikon D810 I had the Nikon Trinity lens set and I think the Tamron SP lenses are every bit as good.

Cost wise you are correct.

I have the Tamron 24-70 F/2.8 G2. It’s an excellent lens. Great build quality, sharp, and a great price. I purchased the Tamron 70-200 F/2.8 G2 in February. That lens convinced me to by the 24-70.
It’s tough to beat the combination of quality and price.

after a great deal of research I chose the tamron. I had a much earlier version which I used with early canon dslr's so my confidence in tamron was already high. Having moved recently to Nikon, I had to make this choice. I will say that having bought the Nikon 70-200 f4 at the same time has resulted in using it most of the time, largely because of what I have been shooting. I can say that from the results so far in what I have seen with this lens, there is nothing to regret about getting it. I am very impressed with the absence of ca. Its as sharp as you could hope for, and I like using it. feels good on the camera. The lens in hand looks and feels like a very good tool. Nothing cheap about it.

Back in the film only days, I wanted this zoom range for my Nikon cameras. I chose the Sigma, mainly because the Nikon front elements rotated when focussing. This made extra work when using a Polar filter, or Lee system grad grey filters. Still use the Sigma lens on FF or crop Nikon digital bodies.
