Is VC model for the Tamron 17-50 really worth the extra $200?

No. We answered this in a thread you made already. The VC version is less sharp and the VC in general is pointless. Don't waste your money.

No, its not, in fact it is the very opposite. the non VC is sharper, and thats what everyone gets. Thats what I have and love. its highly recommended by everyone if you search bar.

Yes even for videos, get the non vc. Vc is dumb and pointless in most cases.

it's honestly all preference. Look around at videos with both and see what you like most. The VC version tends to get a choppy feel, which I think is pretty cool at times. i have the non-vc and love it but it's all about what style you're going for

no a filter would not fuck everything up, if you are retarded and buy cheap ones then yes it will degrade IQ, but if you buy quality filters then it won't effect anything

You're either seriously stupid, or attempting to be funny.
