  • Canon 24-70mm f2.8 L Series Lens and Tamron 28-75mm f2.8 SP Lens Review

Tamron SP AF 28-75mm f2.8 XR Di main features

  • Minimum object distance of just 0.33m throughout zoom range.
  • Macro shooting is available with a maximum magnification ratio of 1:3.92.
  • Thanks to mechanical innovations that enable a very complex structure to be compressed into a compact barrel, the maximum lens diameter has been downsized to just 73mm.
  • Handling is enhanced with the reduction of zoom torque and improved torque fluctuation. Tamron has also implemented advancements in manufacturing technology, enabling the production of lighter, stronger and higher precision parts.
  • Convenient zoom lock mechanism keeps the lens retracted when being carried on a camera.
  • Flower-shaped hood supplied as a standard accessory with excellent stray-light shielding properties.
  • Form and texture that embodies the high performance, high precision qualities of the SP series, and a design to match a new generation of lenses.
  • Features two gold metal rings that symbolize the SP (Super Performance) series.
  • Rubber covering of the zoom and focus rings to improve grip and visual uniformity when the lens is attached to a camera body.
  • Improved readability of important information on the lens such as the distance scale and f-numbers.

Comments about Tamron SP AF 28-75mm f2.8 XR Di Lens - Sony/Minolta Fit:

I love this lens, I do not know all the tec termonology but I used to say I'd never buy Tamron because the reviwes I had read said they were a cheap build, well not the two I have. They are solid, comfortable to handle,a joy to us,for me where possible it will be goodbye Sony hello Tamron. My Camera is a Sony a55 I dont have a fulll frame censor but this lens is still very good for my camera. It is bright and the image captured displays great detail. On close ups it blurs the background out giving a very pleasing efect effortlesly. For indoor work in low light the images are great noise levals far far less than my standard Sony.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
