Cons:There is no window indicating the reproduction ratio, there is no stabilization.
Opinion:Passionate about macro photos, knowing the quality of Tamron macro by reputation, I wanted to buy this new version with the Z mount immediately, also in view of an upgrade of the camera body with the Z5. I have the Z50 with the FTZ and a Micro Nikkor 85 lens (which I used a lot and with satisfaction), I wanted to "update" with a more recent lens, also because I found it uncomfortable to remove and put the FTZ continuously. The lens is very well built, it gives a feeling of robustness, the ring is very fluid but without play, and the quality of the construction is also reflected in the weight. In fact, the FTZ+ micro Nikkor 85 set weighs less than the Tamron alone, so at the moment I was a bit surprised (I'm used to the other "plastics" I own). The quality (also comparing the "old" Micro Nikkor 85) is all there, the only note I feel like making is the lack of the window that indicates the reproduction ratio. I do macro mainly to document the flora and fauna I photograph and therefore the size of the subject is important to me and I can precisely obtain them by knowing the reproduction ratio used. I also miss stabilization, but in Nikon's Z series all camera bodies have ibis (they are missing only in the Z50, Zfc and Z30). Worth mentioning is the presence of the Tamron lens Utility which is used to "customize" the lens. I detected on photographic sites a "fake news" according to which you can close the aperture only up to f16: with my Z50 I set without problems (and I verified the reality of the fact) also f22 and f29. How good is it? You can check it in the macros that I posted these days on my profile. I don't put a vote because I have only had the lens for a few days and I still have to "get the hang of it", but I can say that in these first tests the lens is at least up to the Micro Nikkor 85, which is an excellent lens. Update after shooting a hundred macros: the resolution is at the top, perhaps a little higher than my Micro Nikkor 85 (tested on the Z 50 via FTZ), the autofocus I find a little less performing than the Nikkor 85.Rating: 9
