Pros: sharpness, lightness, colors, reliability, ac correction, cost, modern rendering

Cons: focus by wire and therefore AF, larger footprint than competitors, modern rendering

Opinion: I have been using this tamron with satisfaction for three weeks, alongside the older brother tamron 35 SP 1.8 in sony A frame with adapter. It is clearly a modern setting lens, for my needs very sharp from edge to edge even at full aperture; it has a very high microcontrast that on the one hand facilitates sharpness, on the other it slightly compresses the tonal passages compared to a classic lens. However, it has a pleasant yield, with clean and natural colors, better than the samyang counterpart that you resell for this reason, and it is reliable. It is also a very correct lens both from the point of view of distortion and chromatic aberration, it has no other obvious optical defects and holds the backlight very well. The flaws: first of all the electronic focusing, to which I just can not get used to and which in any case slows down the operations, in the sense that if I slightly change the frame the autofocus, which is also fast, before stopping it returns to the starting point making me lose that tenth of a second. Another defect, very bearable, is the footprint that is very different from the 35mm zeiss and samyang, which are almost pancakes. The construction is of light materials but well finished and seemingly solid. The semi-macro capabilities make it suitable for creative close-ups. Comparisons: compared to the tamron 35 1.8 sp clutters and weighs a third, it is just as sharp, has a few shades less and has much, much less chromatic aberration. Compared to the samyang 35 2.8 it is slightly sharper, built better, more comfortable in use and does not suffer from yellowish-magenta cast color; it is built better and is much bulkier. Compared to the zeiss 35 2.8 costs a third, has a more or less equivalent sharpness, has more microcontrast and less general contrast, for a less characterized yield, is built worse and is much more bulky. Compared to the voigtlander 40 1.4 it does not have the same completeness in tonal restitution and has much more microcontrast.

Pros: Sharpness, flare resistance, macro capacity, weight, tropicalization, cost

Cons: MAF speed, footprint for a 2.8 iris lens

Opinion: I write my first impressions after a few months from the purchase of the Tamron and after trying it in different photo releases. Let's start with the cons, the MAF is quite slow, the Sony 24-105 (another lens in my possession for the Sony E system) is certainly better on the 7RII, in any case nothing dramatic). It is a fairly "large and bulky" lens in relation to focal length and diaphragm. If you are looking for the most compact lens possible to use for street-photography, the samyang/sony equivalent is definitely a better choice. That said, the optics were an incredible surprise. I've had Sigma 35A and Tamron play it in the past in terms of sharpness and micro-contrast, probably overtaking Sigma at the edges (they're impressions, I didn't make direct comparisons). Good flare resistance and control of chromatic aberrations. It is not a macro goal, however the reduced distance of MAF can be a plus in some situations. Although bulky compared to other lenses, the lens is very light with a decent construction quality and tropicalization on paper. Who do I recommend tamron to? To all those who do not need a lens with very open diaphragms, they prefer an all-round optics with excellent value for money.

Pros: Optical quality, macro, lightness, cost

Cons: A little bulky, 'only' f2.8

Opinion: Excellent/excellent sharpness all over the frame at any iris and even at distances close to 1:2. Excellent contrast and tightness to the backlights. Almost zero distortion. Present but gradual vignette, there is worse. Contained chromatic aberrations. True macro performance, in the sense that it maintains excellent sharpness even at the slightest focus distance. A little cumbersome, but you have to consider that it is a macro and that they wanted to keep the diameter filters 67mm. It's not an exciting goal, at least on paper, but it offers solid performance and has serious fundamentals. I am referring to distortion, chromatic aberrations, anti-glare treatment and centering optical groups. Lately there has been a tendency for some compromise in these aspects, then left to the SW corrections. That's not the case with this Tamron 35mm. To consider if you want sharpness to the edges even on 42 Mpx for landscapes and/or you want to photograph at close distances. Without emptying your wallet, it's cheap. Here are 42Mpx images. https://jazzclassicphoto.prodibi.com/a/1j894lkgeg1z44r

Pros: Very light target, distortion 0, flare almost non-existent, a good microcontrast. Great value for money.

Cons: ... yet to be verified

Opinion: I bought this lens on trust (I have a zoom tamron 28-70 f2.8 nikon that gave me so much satisfaction) and for value for money. Honestly I just started to test it and from first impressions it behaves very well. These days I will go to Milan City and do some street photography .... See. Today, 27.12 I took some shots in Milan I posted one made in Piazza Gae Aulenti ... I'd like to have your opinion on the surrender of the target. I do not want to influence your judgment, but in my humble opinion and given the cost it seems to me that the yield is excellent
