I have no experience of the quality of this lens, perhaps other members do.

I've used a Tamron 28-200 in the past (on 35mm film body) and found it's a bit compromised on quality. Something with not such a wide zoom range would probably be more suitable for portrait work. The "classic" portrait lens would typically be something in the 90mm focal length (on 35mm film). Assuming you are using a digital body with a sensor that gives about 1.5x crop factor, you would be looking at about a 60mm lens for portrait work. Perhaps look at something in the 50-200 range to compliment your 170-500.
