KEH does have a time where you can review lenses though so you can get one and test what ever you decide to get, then return it if you don't like it so you are not stuck with something you are unhappy. The other suggestion is rent the lens you are thinking about getting and use it as a rental for a week. That way you know what you are getting and not guessing.

Hi Gang...............
Thanks for the suggestions so far..........
But..............
Shooting a stage show with
prime lenses doesn't work......
I need to use one or two zooms.
I don't time in a dark theatre
to change lenses while all sorts
of action is going on on the stage.
I am not just taking a few shots
of the high points of the show.
I am doing 300-400 shots
of the entire performance.
Also the 70-200mm is to long
on the short end of the zoom.
Actually my basic Canon EF 28-105mm
3.5-4.5 that I broke when I fell down the
stairs seemed to be sharper wide open
that the Tamron.
I may just need to stick to Canon
with what ever my choice of lens ends
up being.
