Pros:Image quality, lightness, quality of materials
Cons:slightly large
Opinion:Quality lens with amazing sharpness, I use it on Sony a7III. Despite the "low" price compared to other more famous lenses, it keeps up with performance above the range in which it is positioned. Slightly large, true, but the lightness and quality of the materials make it really pleasant to use. Promoted!
Pros:Sharpness, weight, focal aperture, AF speed, price
Cons:No video stabilization
Opinion:If I think about the photographic use of the lens, I must say that it really amazed me. It is an all-rounder lens, super bright (f2.8 aperture) and therefore suitable for both light and night shots. The lens is very sharp, the blur is very nice to look at, the focus is very fast. Using it for videos is anything but perfect, the only thing .. stabilization is completely missing.
Opinion:Purchased after reading dozens of reviews and various comparisons. I photographed several concerts with nikon z6 and 24 70 f/4 thanks also to the excellent high ISO resistance of the camera. I decided to take a 2.8 to be able to better manage the times. Discarding a priori the 24-70 f/2 8 z series S for cost reasons, I found myself having to decide between the nikon z 28-75 and this Tamron which have more or less the same price. I found it an excellent optic, light, with lightning-fast autofocus and if possible with colors, in my opinion, slightly more saturated than nikon z. What I didn't expect was the (albeit not striking) difference in sharpness. I took 10 photos in auto mode with Tamron 28-75 f/2 8 Di III VXD G2 and 10 identical with Nikon z 24-70 f/4 S..... Well, the photos compared and enlarged on different details are sharper with the Nikon.... at least at TA. However, the fact remains that, in my opinion, Tamron's G2 is a truly high-level lens.
Cons:I would have liked it to be even more compact
Opinion:Taken for Nikon Z on amazon to recover a return, it was almost a bet, I had its predecessor G1 in a Nikon-branded version, but it did not convince me at full aperture and strangely the color rendering with low light was not satisfying, so I made it. The Tamron G2 version was something else, always sharp already at full aperture, AF without hesitation, compact and light, it almost became a faithful companion in night street outings. The Nikon 24-70 Z 2.8 is superior but I reserve it for other occasions. But this Tamron, also used for portrait and fashion photos, has all its reason, with a vividness of colors very close to the Nikon Z. And I don't need post-production. Fast and accurate AF, tested on both Z8 and Z6 III really gives the maximum and has never disappointed me, could be the surprise for a bright and compact lens. 10 laude
Pros:Lightweight, well built, very responsive and precise AF, tropicalized, excellent color rendering, minimum focusing distance, very sharp already at f2.8.
Cons:Honestly I don't see any, especially for its price but above all for the performance it offers!
Opinion:I've never been a fan of third-party lenses, zoom or fixed, I've always preferred to spend a few euros more but buy native lenses for my cameras. I bought this zoom mostly out of curiosity but above all because in many reviews on the web, it is almost praised for its optical qualities, moreover at a cost accessible to many. As soon as it was installed on my Sony A7 Mark V 61 mpx I immediately thought "he doesn't have it, he will never be able to hold all these mpx!" ...... surprise! I was really stunned and I even exclaimed in a colorful way so the images are beautiful and sharp already at f2.8, incredible! Beyond the really remarkable detail not to mention the very fine and creamy Bokeh, even the colors that this lens returns are fantastic, warm and with that look very similar to the photographic films of the past, so much so that already the Raw files often do not even need interventions, they are already beautiful like this! "Obviously, you still have to get off to a good start with the settings in the car." Then, it has a really surprising focus at the minimum distance, especially at 28mm, where you almost touch the front lens so close you can get to the subject, this also allows excellent macros "see photos on my profile". The lens itself is well built, the materials are not "Premium" but not poor either, the feeling of solidity is perceived and there are no games whatsoever between the moving parts. The dials rotate smoothly, perhaps a little too soft that of the manual focus. The AF is very responsive and extremely accurate, I have never encountered any particular difficulties. Bought new on Amazon for just over €780.00, I have nothing to complain about and I'm fully satisfied. I highly recommend it!
