I have one and like it quite a bit. Here's an image I printed last
night that was taken with it:

I know, it's a mediocre scan of a mediocre print of a mediocre photo,
but don't blame the Tamron. ;-)
That was taken on HP5 at F11 1/125 and using the Tamron's internal
yellow filter.

There was talk recently of the Tamron 17mm - I think Bill Barber has
one and likes it?
I know there were two versions, one (the older one) with filters, the
other without. Which one has a wide, "crenellated" (is this an English
word?) hood?
And let's assume I had to chose between the Tamron and the Tokina,
which one would be the best (if any) - and is any of them "good
enough" for sharp landscape pictures?
I do know the best one would be the Zuiko 18/3.5, but it is too
expensive for me right now. And since I already have the Zuiko 24/2.8
I think the 21mm would be too close in perspective, I need something
wider.
