![]() | Tamron 70-180mm f/2.8 Di III VC VXD G2 Pros: Blurry, fast af, nice colors, more than reasonable size and weights view aperture and excursion, stabilized, 67cm filter Cons: It is not parfocal Opinion: I've had this lens for more than a year, I don't use it much because I'm more 50mm and for convenience I often take the 85mm sony 1.8 behind me, but when I use this 70-180 2.8 I'm always very satisfied with the image quality and colors. For portraiture it is really excellent, for me it makes it quite useless to go and get fixed lenses longer than 85mm. The AF is very fast and accurate, compared to that of the Sony 70-200 f4 G2, the Sony is a little faster, but the Tamron is sufficiently performing even in "sporty" situations, on portraiture obvious being 2.8 wins. the 67 filter makes it easy to have filters shared with other lenses being the most common size Lens that I recommend just over 1000€ new official Italian is really an excellent price, surely the GM2 sony or the analogues canon /nikon will be better but double prices and much higher weights, which in my case as an amateur I do not find justified sent on October 23, 2025 |
![]() | Sony FE 24-50mm f/2.8 G Pros: Compact Lightweight Sharp Parafocal, 50mm rest, very well balanced, 67mm filters Cons: It could be the price Opinion: Taken immediately after it came out, after this period of use I would like to write my impression on this lens with a particular range. The main advantage of this lens is the combination of very high quality optics with very low weights and dimensions, slightly smaller and lighter than the GM prime lenses. I have the A7C 2 and the match is perfect, a small, light, very portable kit that is very little in the eye with a very high quality of final result. Compared to the sony 50mm f1.8, the blur remains softer and more pleasant, and the shorter minimum focusing distance can be useful. 440g and covers the 3 fundamental focal lengths 24, 35 and 50 at f2.8 could make it unnecessary to carry around the fixed focal lengths in your hand the camera is very light, balanced, you never get tired of holding it in your hand. Extremely fast and accurate autofocus and for those who take videos the parfocal lens is a nice thing. The aperture control ring can be made smooth or jerky, all 3 rings offer the right resistance. I like to shoot at 50mm but sometimes it's convenient to be able to widen, the fact that at rest it starts from 50mm is an advantage for me because as soon as I turn it on I immediately have my favorite focal length. Closing to f8 - f11 comes out a nice little star. Nice sharpness already at F2.8. The perfect lens for portrait set, street, travel... It can really be the only lens you can carry around. I would pair it well for portraits with the sony 85mm f1.8 and maybe with a small fixed wide angle. The uncorrected RAWs have a lot of vignetting distortion, but the autocorrect fixes everything, Sony lenses now cone like this: high definition, light, compact... and the distortion is corrected via software. The price is not cheap but it is half of the GMII with a quality of the final results not far away (evaluated here by seeing a few shots and comparisons recovered online) the difference is the 20mm and a very different think and balance that on a body like the A7C can be even more annoying For videos the fact that it is sony allows you to use the various camera stabilizations to the maximum, compared to the same focal lengths with the Tamrons... Stabilization on Sonys works best. In addition, gyroscope data is also saved so that with Catalyst Browse you can do a post stabilization. Totally silent autofocus doesn't affect audio in videos. The filters are 67mm which is the most used size (all or almost all the tamrons and also the 85mm f1.8) so that they can be shared between the various lenses. For me I rate 10... But maybe those who only take photos (with cameras that don't take 30+ shots per second) could have cheaper alternatives, but if you also make MMM videos I don't think there is a better choice between price and quality of the final result and versatility sent on June 05, 2024 |
