![]() | Tamron 70-300mm f/4-5.6 Di LD Macro Pros: Price, size, weight Cons: Autofocus, chromatic aberrations, flare, reliability Opinion: I took it used to adapt to my Sony a6000, so a very dense sensor, and I immediately noticed that the autofocus was unusable, so I always used it manually, also finding myself well, since the ring allows you to move the focus very quickly. The con is that sometimes it's hard to find the point, especially since it's not always as smooth; In addition, the barrel rotates, so polarizers are also difficult to use (they would be very useful given the optical defects). Image quality is only good from f/13 upwards. If you don't close enough, the aberrations are very intrusive and difficult to correct, so I would see it well on sensors that are not very dense, which suffer less from diffraction and that allow you to shoot at closed apertures even in non-optimal light conditions. Mine also broke down at some point: all the electronics died overnight. Thankfully it was still under warranty and I was provided with another one that at some point had the same problem. I decided it wasn't worth the €15 shipping fee and took it apart, only to find that a cable inside had been cut. Unfortunately, without a working diaphragm, this lens is unusable. In the end I closed the aperture manually (around f/11...I think), blocking it with XD glue, and this solution gave me the opportunity to use it occasionally. sent on July 23, 2024 |
