The Tamron 28-75mm f2.8 test

Featured Replies

I picked up a copy of the Tamron 28-75 f2.8 in an attempt to stop myself spending £1300 on the Nikon 24-70mm f2.8. I didn't expect it to perform the same it was just an attempt to satisfy my lust for an f2.8 in this focal range without going mad.

Good thing about buying used is you can resell and get your money back.

Found this one on E-Bay for £220 which I was quite pleased with. I haven't had an opportunity to spend a day out with it yet but here are a few test images from the garden & indoors.

Looks like I'll be hanging on to it for a while.

A few more. Wide open @f2.8 where i'm finding the Tamron a little soft.

I got this lens for my cannon when I first got it....really is a cracking lens, specially for the price. Hope to see more quality pics :)
