I do not think Tamron currently has anything close to a 20-35. At least B&H does not list it. Between the Pentax and the Tokina ATX, the Pentax is only $20 more. If the extra stop of the Tokina is important to you then that might be a reason to buy it. I do not have either, but someone here might have experience with both and offer their opinion.
