Pros: Good focal length. Sharpness, overall good to use.
Cons: Not very good to shoot in direct light.
Opinion: I think this is better than old Nikon 24-70 f2.8. Also unique focal length is perfect to me. I think i also bought 1.4 or 1.7 extender, then i get 210mm or 255mm focal length. Still aperture is quite good. When i shoot in direct light i have been noticed that sun / light what ever it is blurring and makes light fuzzy. Color reproduction is also quite good and sharpness overall in every focal length. Of course if i compare it my old 85mm f1.8 that was better in sharpness, but this is zoom.
77mm filters is good to me and this Tamron works really good also whit filters. It also works my old D300 nicely.
The following opinions have been automatically translated with Google Translate.
Opinion:I had been observing it for a long time, then in the end I decided. It convinced me. A great travel companion, not overly bulky and with a range that both Nikon and Canon lack. Also chosen because with a 77 mm filter ring I was not forced to buy another polarizer. To the hood supplied, I prefer a universal adjustable silicone, I find it much more practical. As long as you can find it new, I highly recommend it.
Opinion:A truly one-of-a-kind optic, this portrait lens is superb. Although the focal range is very sharp already at full aperture, only at 35mm it would be better to close at F4 to achieve the same sharpness as the other focal lengths, I would consider it as a fixed F4 even better, it seems to be very bright. In the portraits it is almost unbeatable takes well the eye and the face of the subject, as soon as I saw the Bokeh / blurred I said wow ... It seems to have in your hands an F2.8, the detachment between the subject and the blurred and as a 24-70 2.8. By the way this 35-150mm I noticed is sharper and brighter between 85 and 135mm despite the F4 Aperture and the excursion. Not only is it very sharp but its great three-dimensionality and quality replaces a 70-200, this makes everything easier if you do not want to change lenses continuously and covers in all the focal lengths useful for the portrait. Using this lens in the studio, his abilities are fully exploited. unfortunately I do not recommend the purchase for wildlife or events where there is a lot of movement or sport because the focus is a little slow but it is normal to give more sharpness you had to give up something, but it deserves all the money spent. I recommend buying in the used.
Opinion:As tamron specified on their website, it is a lens dedicated to portrait or in any case for shots in the studio where it gave me great satisfaction. Unfortunately poor AF yield for shooting times from 1/125 for burst shots. The AF engine can't make it, you can see they had to sacrifice something. Too bad, because it's an excellent lens by definition and general rendering. It is by no means a whole to do for ceremonies or sporting events, in which case the AF is painful.
Opinion:I start by saying that the biggest disappointment is that the opening of f/2.8 is kept only at the minimum focal point. Already at 50mm it's an f/3.2. It may seem like wanting to look for the fur in the egg in a "difficult" perspective already just for its focal excursion, but, at least on paper, it seems to me a great flaw. For the rest it is really an all-rounder goal, both on Nikon D610 and on Z6 (with FTZ ring). It meets my requirement to be able to bring me, when I travel, only one lens (actually two, because I always carry the Tokina 16/28). After about a month of use, I am basically satisfied with the purchase. As for the focal excursion, it gives its best between 50mm and 105mm, which makes it quite versatile even for portraits, as long as you do not want to overdo it with the blurry effect, which is more than enough, considering the opening offered. I have not noticed excessive vignette or distortion phenomena, as you might expect from such a lens, at least nothing unrecoverable (with Lightroom). At the minimum excursion (35mm), it seems to me to lose a bit of detail at high ISO (but I have to check better, having not been able to try it in depth), while at 135 mm in not ideal lighting conditions, the Z6 seems to struggle a bit with the autofocus (both in terms of yield and timing), but it may depend on the settings chosen.
