Query: Great Normal Zoom

I played lens lotto, taking a chance on getting a good copy of the Tamron 28-75 2.8 in Nikon mount. Apparently I hit the jackpot, because this lens is great: sharp wide open throughout the zoom range, renders out of focus areas nicely (better than the Tamron 17-50 VC in my opinion), has zippy focus even in low light, and has a perfect zoom range for me. Some will want more on the wide end, as 28mm is not very wide on a crop-sensor camera. However, as I enjoy taking portraits more than landscapes, I find the zoom range ideal; plenty wide for me. I can get a good group shot indoors, compose a wide variety of portrait shots with stunning head and shoulders captures at 75mm and still get PLENTY of landscape scenes in at the wide end. I purchased this Tamron as my vacation lens. I was tired of carrying around a 70-200 2.8 and two primes (35 and 50). This lens will probably, however, live on my camera most of the time.
