If we’re going to share personal gripes, I think we shouldn’t skirt around the obvious elephant in the room. The Tamron 35-150mm f2.8-4 Di VC OSD is an odd focal length range. A 24-120mm f4 would have made more sense (Nikon makes one).
There are plenty of 24-105mm or 24-120mm lenses for Canon and Nikon DSLRs on the market. To some extent, the Tamron 35-150mm f/2.8-4 Di VC OSD gives with one hand and takes away with the other, delivering greater telephoto reach but limiting the wide-angle potential.

• Not a constant-aperture design, • Maximum viewing angle can feel limiting
Did you ever find it challenging to decide which lens to use for a portrait shoot? Having a range of wide-angle through short and medium telephoto focal lengths is often ideal, but that usually means taking at least two lenses.
The Tamron 35-150mm f/2.8-4 Di VC OSD is another great lens from Tamron. It handles beautifully and delivers the goods in terms of quality. The 150mm length is long enough to be useful, but not so long that it increases the bulk of the lens too much.

Good travel lens.

Light. Cheap. Useful zoom area.

Soft edges. Chromatic aberration.
This is a fantastic lens. It's sharp at every focal length, from 35mm all the way to 150mm and every focal length in between. The only weaknesses I've noticed have been at 35mm f/2.8, where the edges of the frame could be better, and my copy seems to front-focus a bit at that setting.

Sharp, reasonably fast, lightweight, well stabilized, has good autofocus.

Feels fragile; matte plastic exterior probably scratches easily.
