We live in an age of incredible lenses that offer a combination of versatility, performance and image quality unimaginable even a decade ago. However, a lens that makes up a solid case for the best combination of the above, and it’s from a manufacturer you might not expect.
Tamron has recently established itself as a company that makes affordable yet high-quality lenses. However, they have also branched out into more extreme designs, and perhaps the best example of that second trend is 35-150mm f/2-2.8 Di III VXDwhich Stefan Malloch reviews here. Just a few years ago, a full frame zoom lens with a wider maximum aperture of f/2.8 was even a distant possibility, but since the advent of zoom lenses Canon RF 28-70mm f/2L, we’ve seen a slow rise in these more extreme designs that blur the line between focus and zoom. Tamron’s 35-150mm f/2-2.8 is arguably even more versatile by offering a wide range of popular focal lengths, and it does so at an impressively affordable price considering all the lenses. the glass it replaces. Check out the video above for Malloch’s full thoughts.
