One "bummer" about this lens is the vignetting wide open.  Once stopped down to about F/4 you're fine if you don't like the vignette.  My workflow with the 5d3 + raw has been Adobe After effects - I noticed that when you import the first DNG file and go to the "lens profile" tab and select the correct Tamron lens, the vignette slider has no effect.

However, if you select "Canon" as the lens model (I chose 24-70 2.8 as the Canon lens) you can then get rid of your vignette, even at F/2.8.

Great news!  Not sure if this was thread worthy but I just had to share.
