A couple of shops mentioned in this thread. Just go through it. Both Pritam Sons & Goluji stock Tamaron & Sigma lenses. Just give them a call and ask for a specific lenses.

hey username_x,

many thanks for the info. really valuable. negotiating deals with the vendors.

can u also help on your views on performance of sigma vs. tamron lenses? or should i just go with the relatively expensive canon lenses...

Sorry for the late reply Anu bhav.

I have had no experience with Sigma or Tamaron lenses. So can't help you there.
Canon lenses of course are excellent.

You could get one off ebay India for very competitive prices (almost equivalent to the US$ converted price - I've compared with Amazon) - two sellers in Chennai ship pan India (grey market ofcourse) - i think Sigma doesnt have an official presence in India yet. If you have the entry DSLR from either nikon / canon then Sigma 18-200 OS HSM has good reviews (for either mount) and the tamron 18-270 VC has good reviews as well. Both are walkabout lenses - you would do well to compare the bokeh of either against a regular canon / nikon bokeh for similar range (atleast against the kit lenses). Check galleries on pbase.com good luck!

Tamron, sigma and tokino's are all good third party lenses at 1/3 the prices of nikon or canon. I gave back my nikor 18-105 kit lens and picked up a tamron 17-50 and nikor 50mm and nikor 85mm. It all depends on your interest ?
