S5 Pro users ...
The Sigma 18-35 is certainly superb but both expensive and over kill on a S5 Pro. The tamron 17-50 is a good choice for sure. Very sharp lens. None VC version is sharper !
Another perfect lens for the S5 is the Nikon 18-70 F3.5-4.5 A bit faster with greater range than the standard zoom and produces excellent quality results. Top this with silent fast autofocus and weather sealing ring on its base and it takes some beating.
Sharpness comes from the lens though... as such, my choice would perhaps be the Tamron !
No no no. Those lenses are NOT overkill. The S5 deserves the best glass. The best bang for the buck are the sigma lenses. I'm not a fan of the tamron lenses, even if the non VC is sharper.
The stabilization of the sigma 17-50 is excellent.
