Pros: Sharpness at all focal lengths, stabilizer, autofocus, hardness of the rings, tropicalization, blur, used price, vignetting at f/2.8

Cons: Hood a bit bulky, 82mm filters, weight (you can not have everything in life), slightly tending to red (easy to remove in post production). Every 2 years the focus must be calibrated.

Opinion: A lens that I have been using for 5 years, inevitable, the basic objective to all the work done at parties, concerts, etc. Simple, effective and efficient goal. The return of colors is not impeccable, always a reddish touch too, wrapped does not even mind, but most of the time I have to decrease it by force. Weight can become a problem after a full day of shooting, for long half-day jobs I don't even feel it. Excellent and quiet stabilizer, fast focus and no frills. The rings are rubbed in a very good way, but they do not make me crazy when they are wet, they harden too much. Tropicalization also excellent, if it was not tropicalized I had burned it about twenty times, brought under water a lot of times, even in pouring rain, it always worked at its best. The fact that every 2 years the focus must be calibrated is a breaking of boxes, but it has so many merits that I can safely ignore the "mandatory calibration". I don't mind the distortion and neither does the vignetting, on the contrary ... I consider vignetting a plus point, I really like it as an effect. It is a lens that I will carry on until it explodes or falls into a ravine, otherwise I will never take it out of my hands.

Pros: It's almost perfect

Cons: 24mm barrel distortion a bit annoying for videos

Opinion: I bought this lens as a "jack of all trades" since for landscapes I have a dedicated wide angle and I have a canvas for naturalistics. I needed to cover this focal length for both photos and videos and this lens turned out to be a masterpiece. Very good stabilization for videos and photos (I changed the settings with the Tamron tap-in console and I set the stabilization in video mode), clear lens already from 2.8 and practically perfect from f / 4 at all focal lengths. Very nice blurred, even with complicated backgrounds, very reliable and precise focus, it needed to be micro adjusted just a minimum but it was already almost perfect as an exit from the box. It has beautiful colors, for me that I do not have time to do color grading in post for videos pulls me out excellent colors both on complexions and landscapes, holds up well the backlight and has a beautiful sunstar. Defects? The distortion at 24mm is a bit annoying, in the photos it is easily corrected but in the videos it is annoying especially if there are horizontal lines that make it evident, even if it disappears already from 28/30mm. I have not tried the Canon, I know that as sharpness should be superior, but this lens, for what it costs, with excellent stabilization, excellent construction, very fast and silent AF even for videos is practically a must, it gave me great satisfaction both in videos and night photos, in landscape, in short, I would buy it again. Highly recommended!

Pros: Stabilization, brightness, solidity

Cons: nothing

Opinion: I feel very well. Its controls are solid, positioned in the classic points where you expect them. It has a good weight but does not bother. It is very bright and does not make strange noises. I did not need special calibrations on the Tamron base, which I did not have to buy, the photos are always sharp, I do not find any defect. I am very happy to have saved money and to have been able to take other goals.

Pros: SHARPNESS AND COMPACTNESS, VR

Cons: ....

Opinion: EXCELLENT LENS REALLY SHARP, VERY COMPACT COMPARED TO ALL THE COMPETITION, THE WEIGHT IS ADEQUATE TO THE CHARACTERISTICS, THE OTHERS WEIGH MORE. CONSTRUCTION REALLY WELL DONE ON THE 850 DOES ITS JOB VERY WELL, I TOOK IT FOR CEREMONIES AND SHOTS IN THE STUDIO BUT I USE IT VERY WELL IN LANDSCAPE. IMPRESSIVE STABILIZER EVEN IF I NORMALLY SHOOT ABOVE THE SAFETY TIMES

Pros: . . .

Cons: After a day it does not work, the optics can not be repaired, not even replaced because Tamron says it is Out of Production.

Opinion: Normally bought with polyphoto Italia warranty, after a few days L'af no longer worked, the store where I made the purchase sent it to assistance. However a big fall down by Tamron a thousand euro lens should not give such problems. Af that whistles very loudly and jammed, after a day it was a continuous worsening and not even apple have replaced. For the few photos I took the lens seemed very sharp with a slight loss of sharpness after 50mm. But I will be able to give a more accurate opinion when the lens comes back to me from Tamron because I was able to try it yes and no 2/3 days. UPDATE OF 6/04/22. The store where I had made the purchase made me the refund because the lens will not be repairable. I have always bought Tamron optics and after this event I was really very disappointed now I will think twice before buying Tamron material especially of this kind. HOWEVER, THOSE WHO MAKE POSITIVE REVIEWS ON THIS PERSPECTIVE ARE PROBABLY PAID BY TAMRON. EVERYONE I KNOW WHO HAS HAD THIS GOAL HAS A LOT OF PROBLEMS.
