Pros: Sharp, light lens, has f2.8 on 17-20mm (good for astro photography).
Zoom and focus rings has excellent smooth. Great coatings and weather sealing :)
Has 77mm filter thread.
Cons: Missing numerical scale, previous model of this lens has it, so i dont know why Tamron wont added o this one.
Not internal zoom what mean bit of front lens is extending on zoom few mm.
On autofocus mode, focus ring zooms and spins itself wile focusing, so be aware where you hold your hand.
Significant vinieting on f2.8 but can be fixed in post or reduced in camera.
Lens cap is horrible, always falling off :(
Opinion: I got it 2 month after getting on market. Love it. Great my old Tokina 11-16mm replacement on FF. Love it and try to use it as much i can.
Got it for landscape and astro photography sort of 2in1 lens. Haven't tried on astro yet, but i will try for sure soon.
Highly recommend on FF body as 16-35mm cheaper option (stuffed with great specs) great price and quality balance.

Pros:Light, Very sharp, Small, 2.8 up to 20mm, tropicalized.
Cons:Motor AF a slow wire
Opinion:This is an extraordinary objective. Sharp from edge to edge, resolving, very light and compact. The only flaw, but venial being a UWA, is the AF engine a bit slow. It maintains an excellent balance even if used with adapter, it works really well, it does not regret the Canon L which, however, require a double outlay, and clutter and weigh much more. That 2.8 aperture on the wide-angle focal length makes it also suitable for photos of the Milky Way. It is also tropicalized. What else could you want?
Opinion:Excellent lens that fully reflects the excellent standards achieved by the new Tamron lines. Beautiful aesthetic "business style" (except for the matte paint too prone to scratches), very good build quality in relation to the low weight: it does not give me at all a sense of fragility, the movements of the helicoid are fluid and precise and the optics are well balanced. It mounts the widespread 77 mm filters. The only drawback is the af of old conception, there is no "full-time manual focus" (or MF override), as is now possible on almost all modern lenses, so between MF / AF there is just a physical trigger ring-engine, therefore you must NOT focus manually if in AF mode. The focusing speed is good but not excellent, typical of non-ultrasonic motors. Optically, however, it is a jewel: very sharp already at TA (it is an F2.8 up to and including 20mm and an F4 beyond), especially in the center of the frame, but the edges are still excellent; the color rendering is faithful and the contrast very good; excellent resistance to flare; good distortion control and above all the possibility of correction in post-production (while distorting, especially in the 17-20 range, it does not have "wild" distortions); the minimum focus distance of only 28 cm allows creative use (with a very pleasant bokeh), maintains excellent quality at the upper end of the focal length (I compared it to 35mm F4 with my 35 Z and holds up well). Coma very well controlled, which, combined with the 2.8 of the first 3mm, also make it an excellent candidate for astrophotography. In addition, it is compatible with the console tap-in and can be updated and adjusted. I use it with the latest firmware of its (2) on my Z6, and it works perfectly, with the advantage of the IBIS. Nikonists just have to be careful about incompatibilities with older bodies: it has the electromagnetic diaphragm for which the same limitations apply as the Nikkor "E" lenses. Knowing both the Nikon AF-S 18-35 and the Canon 17-40, I'm sure I can say that this is superior to both. Finally, excellent price, especially if import. Rating 10-.
Pros:Embarrassing lightness and sharpness for a lens that looks like a toy.
Cons:nothing.
Opinion:Excellent yield and the variable diaphragm from F 2.8 down does not create problems if you leave a slight margin of ISO automation. Very light from embarrassment, you forget to keep it hooked to the SLR and is always ready in any shooting and atmospheric condition. Never a disappointment. Highly recommended for street and sporting events where you need wide shots. Compared with Canon EF 17-40 and EF 16-35, I noticed substantial differences for the better for this small tammy. -update June 2021- I'm using it with R adapter on the R5. Excellent results. The Ibis of the R5 works great and the lens churns out details and beautiful colors. Maybe it will take a long time before you think about the excellent RF 15-35 f2.8
Cons:external af, lack of distance scale, vignetting at 17 mm
Opinion:Finally a wide zoom with which you can do everything or almost everything. I don't understand what nikon is waiting for to do with it. Very sharp all over the frame, very light, compact. The only mole that vignettes well at 17 mm and on the nocturnal is irrecoverable on the sides. If it had been a starting 15 mm it would have been an unsurpassed and definitive wide angle in my view.
