Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 lens review with samples (full-frame and APS-C)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 18 окт 2024
- Here we go again with a review of an absolutely classic Tamron lens that could be of considerable interest to owners of full-frame cameras - although its focal length would make it a little awkward on an APS-C camera. Can this very inexpensive, fast standard zoom lens possibly be any good? Let's find out...

I have to say, the fact that this video is 6 years old but basically indistinguishable from your newest video.... is quite damn impressive. Your consistency is top notch!
lol its true
It's a good thing when it comes to his videos. Don't fix whats not broken
I loved the notion that "Tamron marketing people must have impressive lung capacity" lol... I fully agree with you Chris.
A rule of thumb my dad shared was that lenses are typically sharpest at 2 stops slower than wide open.
Ofcourse they are. It's physics.
Simple test if you're suffering myopic eyesight (nearsighted) put off your glasses and look through a pinhole. Result: you suddenly have perfect vision.
I just got myself the Tamron 28-75 f/2.8 for my Canon 6D thanks to you, Chris! I really like your style of presenting. Very clear, objective and well organized. Thank you for your great videos!
Hows the performance? This is the combo im planning to buy
@Robert I have a 6D now and looking to get this lens, kindly tell us how you feel about the lens, having used it for a few now. Thanks
yes please let us know how did that lense turn up using with canon 6d (that is the camera I have) (currently I only have the canon 50mm f 1.4 and it is great but I need a nonexpensive telephoto lense that can be use for low light situations like weddings!! please let me know
Found this lens on Amazon for about $200 used..great AF, great in low light, and an overall steal! My new favorite lens🔥
I bought this lens a month ago, used, for U$ 400 and its a very very very nice upgrade to my kit lens. You are right about the range @ 28mm, but I will say: theres no cheaper lens that brings that quality for its price, and its 2.8. I spent weeks viewing reviews and checking videos, and the only viable option is 17-50mm 2.8, from tamron, but its for crop sensor only. Since I want to upgrade my t3i for a 6D or 5dm3, or something that will come, thats the best I could afford, with decent quality. That being said, whenever I can, I shoot with F4, for sharper images. The only two things that bother me are: the zoom ring, that is not smooth at all, and the motor focus that is noisy and sounds its going to break. Overall, Im so happy that I dont need to use the crappy lens kit and the image quality is a huge leap. If someone can find something better for U$ 400-500 dollars, well, tell me and I will be very pissed.
does it keep up with the auto focus at moving objects ?
Did u found something ?
I’ve had this lens for over 10 years and it’s still my favorite all around and on a crop. Shot a few weddings with this and was very happy with results.
Great review. I've had this lens since 2005. Still use it today.
Love this lens, I use it almost everyday with my Sony a900 or a850, it's fast and focuses fast because the Sony uses a screwdriver mechanism and I find it very sharp even wide open. I want to mention that when this lens is used with a Sony Alpha body you get IBIS as a bonus making it an even better lens. Chris, I watch all your videos because of the knowledge gained from your good work makes buying decisions easier, thanks!
Can I use this lens with my sony a7ii?
I have nikon d750 or i use tamron ths lens..before this i was used nik 24-120 f4
I swear that i didn't found any any any noice(in 24-120 lots of noice when use 1000 + iso)
I face a problem that when i take full length picture or i was assure that focus points at face but when see my pics at pc monitor, i always shocked that lens pick background subject or subject found blurry(pick sharp focus in background)
Or when take horizental pics,pics always perfect..problem in just full length vertical pictures
At 75mm or 78mm portraits lens give ne awsome super sharp result
Plsssssss help
I bought one at the end of 2019 for about 180 on eBay. Wanted a cheap f2.8 zoom lense. I have used it on the m50 mk1 and eos rp. I have had some weird focus issues on the m50. Could of been an adaptor issue or because I kept switching between lenses maybe, not sure. That was the only time I had focus issues. It seems to be kind of blurry and struggles with close up shots or far away shots. Seems to perform best at mid range shots. I haven't seemed to have any issues on the rp. It's not as sharp or detailed as my 50mm f1.8 nifty fifty though. Did a bunch of comparison photos one day after doing a photo shoot for a friend. This is a great lens for personal fun. I've enjoyed it for the price. Usually my go to. I have noticed with my lense that the center isn't always great have to move up to about f4 at 28mm for sharpest center and around f5.6 for 70mm for best quality in the center of photo/focused area. F2.8 is okay for low light but If light is good i usually shot f4 for better quality.
I've owned one of these since the 300d was released! Awesome for portraits especially for the price, would love to see how it performs on an R5 and adapted to a Sony FF, I currently use mine on my RP with great results...
I've tested this lens with the Sony FF. Sony a7IV which gives beautiful pictures and working with the autofocus is also a bonus.
In that zoom range, I personally recommend the 24-70mm Tamron f/2.8. It has stabilisation, is very quiet, has quick focus, and is nice and sharp (better than the canon version of the 24-105mm f/4). It's also weather sealed, which the lens in review is not. One more thing to note is that the t-stop is listed as 2.8 (the same as the f-stop). That's quite special. All in all it's a satisfying, and fun lens.
Another one I hear great things about is the Sigma 24-105mm f/4.0. It's supposedly even sharper than the Tamron 24-70mm, but you lose half the light as well. I haven't tried that one myself.
Both of these are significantly more expensive options, though. But, it's also not a novel focal range. One could argue that the all-around usefulness of 24-70mm is worth investing some extra dosh into.
That shot with the church and cemetery on the side is absolutely beautiful!
These reviews are just extremely informative! I have a Canon 28-105 f3.5-4.5 USM II for my APS-C which is a good all-around travel focal range in my opinion. However I rarely go over 70, and for that I have a tele also... Which means that a 28-70 or something like a 24-70 or 28-75 is a good one-lens setup for me. That f2.8 is really tempting, and I really miss a so detailed review from you about said Canon 28-105, for comparison purposes. I took some of my best shots with that so far (unfortunately I don't have much more to compare it to (yet)).
Same!!
I bought a used copy of Tamron's 17-50mm f/2.8 at a bargain on MPB due to the tiny flecks of fungus inside the lens and have been nothing but thrilled with its image quality ever since. If the 28-75mm is anything close, those two lenses would make for a great coverage of focal range in just two lightweight lenses, with fast enough apertures to take you into the early evening or indoors. Unless you need faster glass, you really can't go wrong trading in your kit for these.
Very nice review. Had I seen it a few weeks ago I probably would have been very excited that I just picked up an excellent condition copy of the non-bim version of this in Nikon mount for $90. I was expecting to be underwhelmed when I originally acquired it but was pleasantly surprised after shooting with it for a bit. It's an astonishingly good lens for that price. Focus is actually pretty zippy, it's sharp where I need it when I need it, has good contrast and colors, decent bokeh and focuses quite close. It's not quite as good as the new Tamron 28-75 but I paid 1/8 the price and it definitely isn't 1/8 the lens.
Thanks for this review. The Tamron 17-50mm was always my favourite general purpose lens on APSC. I am making the move to full frame but on a budget, so it's good to see its 28-75mm sister lens is also quite good. I expect the 24-70 VR is a little better, but second hand copies cost 3x the amount. I can put that money towards a nice prime. I'm thinking of either the Nikon or Tamron 35/1.8.
This lens does produce very sharp images close up at 2.8. I was at a function and the focus continually failed especially at 50 mm and above 4.0. The focus kept diddling between 4.0 and 7.1 without any focus and at 8.0 it suddenly stops especially in a low light situation. I was using a Canon 6D and 5DM3. I could not use a flash due to the nature of the function.
Hi there! I just wanted to say that you have the best lens reviews through youtube, so keep on doing it! Simple, not confusing and not to mention that you've not only testing the most expensive lenses!
But I've got one question: I am on a really low budget with a 600D and I want to get a fairly good and most importantly cheap super-wide lens, Which one do you suggest? I'm not afraid of manually focusing, so really old but good resolution lenses will do the job for me.So as I said no need to be canon manufactured as long as it's sharp (I dont care about distorsions ad vignetting as they can be corrected in post-processing. Thank you in advance!
check out tamron 17-50 f2.8 non VC version.
Yup. Tamron 17-50 f2.8 non VC, or preferably the more expensive Sigma 17-50 f2.8 OS HSM
Christopher Frost Photography Chris, I need some advice for buying new lenses, do you have any e-mail to write you? Thanks!
Christopher Frost Photography bertoez
Thank you for your answers! By the way what's your opinion about canon's 10-18mm IS STM? It's much cheaper and wider than Tamron or Sigma 17-50. I know it lets in much smaller amount of light, but it has IS. I checked your review of it, and that lens seems to be quite nice for the price. Opinions?
Check out my review :-)
Just bought one for my Canon 5D Mark III. Thanks to your tips, I'm getting excellent results. Wish I had discovered this lens sooner.
a09配5d mark III 如何？
Love the outro with the cute animal videos.
Excellent lens review by the way. I am currently strongly thinking about purchasing this bargain full-frame lens.
I have this lens (non BIM version ) on 5dmk3 for video. Excelent combination !
I've bought the lens a few days ago for 120 Euros, a very good price. Tamron writes on its own Homepag that it doesn't work on the Canon R-System, just in Manuelfocus. That's wrong, the Autofocus works perfectly on the R and the R6.
yes same thing on the z cameras.
@@Juventinos Nikon? Ouh, I think no Objective and nothing works correctly on Nikon. 😆😁🤣
@@Polyplectron you never used a nikon then if you think that.
I didn't want to buy anything that wasn't top notch for my camera, but I guess this lens will have to do for the money I have right now. It's actually much better than what I anticipated for the price.
Spot on Review!! wish i had seen this before I purchased this lens. I picked this over the Sigma 17-50mm because I wanted a lens that is Full frame when i move up from my D7100....Big mistake!! Blurry faces galore!! no matter what focus techniques you use. Did comparison shots against my Sigma 70-200mm...not even close, Sigma was world's sharper! ratio wise i toss out 3 out of every 4 shots from this lens....if you have poor quality of light, don't use this lens....only performs well in great light.
I'm thinking about getting one for an affordable zoom for portraits with my APS-C Nikon bodies, so corner sharpness is not an issue for me. Thanks for posting.
Tarequl Hasan (I can't reply to your post directly, so I'll try this)
SLR cameras can take third party lenses. Or rather, third party companies create lenses that will fit to big name brands such as Nikon or Canon. In this review, two Canon cameras are used to test the lens. So, yes, Canon can take a Tamron lens. *Just make sure you get the Canon version of that lens.*
Hope that helps! :-)
Christopher: Thank you for all your reviews. You are the one that providing serious test review. Simple and efficient. I can tell you that I always follow your opinion before buying.... I have a 5D Mark IV moving back to Canon after being Panasonic and Sony... So I need to rebuild some few lenses... I already have a 25-105 F4L IS USM - A 70-200 f2.8 G2 from Tamron a fantastic lens, and a converter x2 from Sigma that works quite good on the TAMRON. I project to buy or a 100-400 from Sigma or Tamron or Canon.... It would be nice if you make a comparison review about these popular lenses..... Thank You. Daniel
Hi Chris! I recently sold my Canon EF 24-105mm F/4L IS USM lens because I want a lens that I can use for night photography. So far I have three alternatives, the first one is the old Canon EF 28-70mm F/2.8L USM. It's quite hard to find a used one here in Sweden but I was able to find plenty on ebay in Japan, total cost would be around 800$. Then we have the old Canon EF 24-70mm F/2.8L USM. Much easier to find where I live but it's still not that cheap, I can get a used one between 600-700$. And finally we have the Tamron 28-75mm F/2.8. I'm really chocked that I can get a new one and still pay less than I would for a used Canon 28-70 or 24-70, a little under 500$. Just to let you know, I don't need high build quality, silent autofocus or a first party lens. I've owned the Tamron 17-50 before so I'm familiar with Tamron. But in terms of overall image quality between the Canon 24-70mm F/2.8L USM Mark i and the Tamron 28-75mm F/2.8, which one would you say is the better performer? I can't ask you about the 28-70 since you haven't review it :-)
Sincerely
Dave
One of the first lenses I bought.. got it for 120$ ... I was tempted lately to upgrade to 24-70 g2 but couldn't justify paying around 800$ for a used one ... due to MTF and reviews I can see the main advantage I would got is the Image Stabilization...luckily I found a Nikon Z7 for 950$ so now I have IBIS to solve that 😀 ...
Got mine for 90€! Pretty happy with it, also the autofocus is quite usable on my Sony A7III with the Sigma MC11 Adapter
Are you having any noticeable issues focusing in low light?
Dear, congratulations for the review and for the channel. I am with a doubt and I need your opinion. I have bought a used Tamron 28-75 Di lens but offered as 100% functional in a well known American online store (MPB). When I try to focus in the automatic mode used on a Nikon D7000 it works perfectly, but when focusing using the Liveview mode (camera screen) it does not focus (does not work). I want to know if it is normal, if it is a matter of a configuration error or if it could be that the lens is damaged? Thanks very much,
Nice review buddy! Keep up the good work!
Another great review, made me look for one used on Amazon and for $190 it found it's way in my camera bag - so impressed with the results when compared to the original 24-105mm Canon kit lens that came with the 5Dmk iii. It does suffer aesthetically so to boost it up I added a lens hood, Lol. For real world use I was very happy with the results throughout the zoom range at f/2.8 - I'm sure I'm not as discerning as you but for someone starting out where the margins are low this is a great lens.
does it keeps up with auto focus when you trying to shoot moving objects ?
thank you for all these nice reviews :)
3:06 Full frame
5:08 APS-C
very informative as usual.
Is this lens better in terms of overall image quality and sharpness than sigma 17-70mm *C? Btw nice and detailed review.
Really helpful review! Thank you.
Great review as always. Thanks!
Thanks for the review, I think I might buy this lens and try it out.
I wonder if this lens still perfoms good on today's sensors, you can find it for 150$ dollars or something like that and it feels like it would be great
I have one on a canon r6 and it performs pretty accurately with this review
Love your review mate!
hi Chris, honest review for this lens. ill consider this one and will do more research about it. I watched a review also that they are using a nikon 35mm f1.8DX prime lens on a FX body and fix the vignetting in LR
Hi Chris, I love your videos. You have the best reviews.
I have a Nikon D5300 APSC sensor (1.5x), I have the Sigma 18-35 F1.8 but I need a telephoto, would you recommend this lens? Considering I already have a wide angle... You said in the video that is not a good option because of the weird focal length that gives you on an APSC, but I think it has an excellent sharpness, and if you use it just for telephoto it would work great. What do you think?
Thanks again, you are the best. God bless.
Hmm - it's an option, I suppose, if you're on a low budget. 75mm is not very telephoto really but you will get f/2.8.
Christopher Frost Photography, Thank you very much... I'm indeed in a low budget. And I guess I prefer 2.8 over focal length.
I picked up this lens used a few weeks ago for $200USD. For a walk around lens it is great! Although I do wish it went to 24mm. Compared to the newest Canon 24-70 mk2 (which I rented a couple years ago), the Canon is sharp and contrasty corner to corner, but at 3.5 times the price (new), it better be. The Tamron is now part of my travel kit.
Tamron 28-75 f2.8 is very good in term of image quality, bokeh and sharpness, okay it is not so fast lens but I am just amateur and for the price it is unbeatable and I deeply recommend this lens too.
very nice review! thanks
Thanks for the review chris! Would this be a decent portrait lens for someone on a budget ? Since on my crop it would be about 45-120? What are your thoughts? Thanks again!
5 years late, but best portrait lenses are primes and primes are cheaper
Would you say this camera is more for photography rather than video considering the lack of image stabilisation?
I am an amateur. Why purchase F2.8 when the best photos are taken at 4.5 ? Is it a good daily use lens instead of a 50 MM prime lens?
Chris. If you only could keep one lens. Which would you keep?
Hmm probably the Canon 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM
Christopher Frost Photography What About Full Frame?
Martino190
Either the Sigma 35mm f/1.4 Art, or the Tamron 24-70 VC USD
Christopher Frost Photography Any chance on reviewing the Tamron 24-70? Curious to see how it does on your tests!
+José Cruz He has done a review on that its positive
Thank you, very good test
Have a question for you what is your personal preference for the Tamron 28 mm to 80 mm AF 3.5 and initially what would you suggest that the value of that could possibly be for a resale of value
Hi Christopher and friends:
This lens Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 is perfect on Nikon DSLR but I cannot use it on Nikon Z , even I have FTZ adapter but auto focus does not work but manual.
The same Tamron 10-24mm 1: 3.5-4.5 cannot use on Nikon Z7II but manual.
Please tell those lenses can upgrade firmware or not or those lenses only use goon on Nikon DSLR only.
Thank You.
My second copy of this lens seems to be very good! It's a try and error unfortunately... But in the end I got rewarded with good image quality on the cheap :)
Except for the lower left corner. So again you have to extremely lucky on eBay to get a really good one. Good luck 🍀
The cute animal videos have no links? Are they supposed to? Great review as usual.
Turn on annotations.
Using it on nikon d3300 for photo and video for 3 years til now. Great lens for 150 dollars 👌🏽
Mine seems to back focuses hard on the Canon rp. When taking portraits I usually end up with pixelated mushiness around the eye
From what I’ve read on Reddit and personally experienced. The older version of Tamron f2.8 28-75 mm or this version on the RF canon cameras using an ef-rf adapter it does have focus shift or back focus and it’s very noticeable wide open at f2.8.
If you used this on aps-c with a speed booster to allow for a better aperature. Would it be better than the aps-c sigma 17-50 in quality?
A very similar full frame lens has just been announced by Tamron for e-mount cameras.
I know, I'm a little excited about it :-)
Best review ever.
The Tamron 28-75/2.8 is a way good budget alternative to the current (and much improved, but also way more expensive) Tamron 24-70/2.8 VC, i'll use it 'til the day i can afford that one.
The 70D has about the same pixel density as a 5DSR...
I understand you did get a sony camera? Can you try this on a7rii maybe? with La ea 3. Gmaster is creazy expensive...thanks.
hi chris do you think the tamron 28 75 would have enuff quality as i start to build a portfolio? i also have the sigma art 35 and nikon 85 1.8 and also the tamron 15 30 which i was thinking of selling to buy the nikon 24 70 2.8. unless your opinion on the tamron 28 75 is a positive?? thanks for your time
Take a look at this review. It will help you to see if the lens is good enough for your needs
Looks very nice and sharp...
hi! I'm fond of your reviews!! I like your channel! So I can't choose between this tamron 28-75 2.8 and tokina 28-70 2.8 pro. Can you help me what is sharper and better against counter light! Thank you! A like tokina's built quality but i heard about "tokina"soft effect, and afraid of it. Thank you again!
It is a good lens. Thank for the review.
Hi Christopher, I received my copy of this lens 2 days ago, i slapped it onto my new Sony A7R3 amd started shooting in hand-held mode. For some reason my images are not coming out to be sharp. The lens was little hard to mount. It had to apply a lot of force to hear that click sound of the lens snapping into position. I wonder if that's a bad sign?
Then I tried shooting in AF-S and AF-C mode. The S mode seems to give badly focused images even though thr camera locked focus correctly. If I zoom in all the way on a person's face, it isn't as sharp as I was expecting. Some shots very easily blurred. Shutter speed was 1/25 to 1/80, tried to see if it is the effect of hand shake, but even after keeping syper steady amd high shutterspeed, i am not getting the pixel level sharpness when I zoom in right on the eye of the person. Eyebrowes, eye lashes and cornia aren't as sharp as they should be as par numerous examples on RUclips of this lens review.
What should I do to verify for sure if my copy of the lens is bad or my copy of the camera body is bad.
I checked all AF settings = Area = Flexible spot M, AF-S/AF-C, steady shot ON, shooting RAW, can't figure out what's wrong here.
You might need to shoot at faster shutter speeds
@@christopherfrost How low can I got in shutter speed If I am shooting handheld and still want reasonable sharp photos. Say taking people shots or group shots. shooting something that's still either objects or people.
@@rajatcoool Aim for 1/125. Honestly the best thing is for you to get out with your camera and just practice, see what works
@@christopherfrost cool. Thanks 😊 I asked because I recently moved from a crop sensor nikon D7200 to a full frame sony a7r3. On my Nikon I used to shoot hand held at about 1/60th of a second and got pretty decent results. With FF my expectations were higher. I believed I can shoot handheld at little lower shutter speeds too. Sony's sensor stabilization also should help. But I guess I will not to play with the camera to find a new safe minimum shutterspeed number.
dear, I would like buy a lens to substitute my 18-55 Canon kit. For my T6s, what do you think is the best option between this Tamron 28-75 and the Sigma 17-50mm f/2.8 EX DC OS HSM?
Thanks for your time.
for photography events like party fest
The 17-50 will have a more appropriate zoom range for a standard zoom lens
The 17-50 will have a more appropriate zoom range for a standard zoom lens
Great lens. Slow and noisy focussing, but cheap as chips, and pretty sharp.
i just got this lens for my nikon d750 i had a 24-120 f4 from nikon.... do you think i made a mistake buying this lens because i really cant decide because at one point it looks good and sometimes i feel like the 24 120 is a better lens please someone help me...
Are you going to review the new 100-400? Or the Sigma 150-600 Sport?
I really don't know if I should buy this one or the sigma 17-70 1:2.8-4. I will start working with photography soon, so I need lens for both events and still pictures. I liked the quality of the pictures from this lens and they are faster, but sigma looks more versatile and have the vibration reduction system. Right now I can only buy one of them... so what should I do? O_o
Oh, I have a APS-C (nikon D7000)
+youpa Buy the Sigma! this lens is horrible!! I shoot sports mostly and let me say I miss many good shots with this lens....blurry portraits at f2.8....I picked this over the Sigma because i am moving to full frame....bad choice!!
Would this be good shooting ceremonies?
Are you reviewing the same lens you bought on eBay? if so, is it used?
It’s there a reason why this lens won’t fit to my canon eos 80d??
No, it should fit
Perfect video, keep it up :)
in your opinion do you think its better than a 35mm or 55mm?
waiting for you to review the NEW Tamron Sony FE lens 28-75mm f2.8 expected for release sometimes in April or May...2018.
At 28 f 5.6, I would not call that bitingly sharp extreme corners. With my copy on FF, with distant focus,extreme corners are never sharp even at f 8. They get sharp only at 35 mm from f 5.6.
Otherwise perfect all arounder. Excellent central sharpness. Useful for portraits and street photography. Best at f 4.5 - 7.1. Nice natural colours altough on slightly warm side. I recomend it, too.
Is image quality with this lens on a crop sensor frame just as good as the 17-50mm version on a crop sensor frame?
The lens is way good, especially for the asking price - with luck for around 170-200 EUR, in mint condition.
Only annoying thing because the design is way old: the way noisy, conventional DC AF motor, and of course only 28mm
wideangle, not 24mm. For APS-C/DX, the Tamron 17-50/2.8 (without VC) is a much better choice, because it's being designed
for the smaller Image Circle, and also slightly newer design than this 28-75/2.8 Tamron. The 17-50/2.8 is sharper at open Aperture compared to the 28-75/2.8. Like Christopher said, this Tamron 28-75/2.8 is way cheap to have, mount it onto a 5D "classic" and you've got a very decent, cheap FF Setup.
Can i use this lens to canon body? Someone says canon lens just made for canon body.I still confused plz infom me if u can :-)
THIS LENS WITH SIGMA 24-105MM F4 ART LENS WHICH ONE IS BETTER ?
+izonunited nigerdelta It's more that they're different. But I'd prefer to use the Sigma
@@christopherfrost Chris that was my exact question too. I was thinking a few people said with this Tamron they try and often stop down to f4 so I was thinking it might be better going for Sigma 24-105 so I get that extra 24mm and will use f4 as my standard. I already have a 50mm1.4 and 85mm 1.8 so I think it will be wise for me to go for the Sigma 24-105. Bless~
who the fuck names these things? also great video as usual.
Sony a7r2+Sigma Mc-11+Tamron 28-75mm... Any ideas ???
Would also like to know what people think about that
Sony A73+MC-11+Tamron 28-75 f/2.8 is a great combo. Just make sure you firmware upgrade the Sigma MC-11 adapter. This lens almost never comes off the camera 💪
Is the clips from Scotland? Looks very much like pitlochry!

When i capture pic who are nearly 5 foot to background then mostly my camera focus at background or ignore subject.remember i always use SINGLE POINT FOCUSING..even i confirm again n again for confirm focus but i dont know why cam/lens ignore subject and focus in background
Plsss help
Note:
I have also 24-120 but they give me perfect focusing at subject
Heck i wanna know what lens are you using to record the lens? 😆
Thank you for great review video
If i have tamron 28-75, do i need to buy portrait len, such as sony fe 85 f/1.8?
Well, you could always see how you get on at 75mm and f/2.8 before making that decision
Have you done a review of the Canon 70-200 F2.8 IS L USM II?
I picked this up for $130 used and its great lens
seems like the newer mirrorless tamron is considerably better IQ wise
Thank you!
Hy cris,,
how sharp this lens? is it more sharp than canon 24-105L ? on full frame

Would this be good enough to shoot concerts outdoors? What do you recommend? Thanks
It'd be fine but you'd probably want something with slightly more zoom range (depending on where you're standing)
+Christopher Frost Photography but for constant aperture throughout the zoom is hard to find? Thanks
Yup, it's hard to find.
Sharp at 28mm wide open, but at 75mm not so sharp wide open. Have to step down to f4 for good sharpness. For $200 it's still a good deal.
Hi please does this lens go up to other apertures or it's fixed at only 2.8 ...sometimes I just don't want a bokeh in some shots..Thankyou
Yes, of course, you can stop down the aperture. I demonstrate that in my sharpness tests in this video
