Have used the Canon 18-200. Very good range but the image quality was not really appealing. This Tammy seems much better, but that could be your handling and skills at work as much as anything to do with the lens itself :)
@@vaidehiarts I owned the Canon 28-300 L for years and loved it. This Tamron is 100mm shorter but 1/2 stop wider at 28mm, is smaller, lighter, and sharper. It should be extremely popular and Tamron should be commended for their FE offerings. The only alternative is Sonys 24-240, which is OK, but not great. For travel or for people looking for an all in one solution, these lenses are fantastic.
I'm looking forward to buy this. I just moved to full frame and since I own A6000 I have the APSC version of this Tamron (Tamron 18 - 200mm f3.5 0 6.3) and I was having a blast with it. Thanks for the video and the review btw!
It's funny because this lens was one of the most important reasons why I switched to Sony full frame from aps-c. No other system to my knowledge -- especially aps-c systems -- offer a lens with as versatile focal and aperture ranges. When I'm traveling with family and friends, I simply don't want to carry around multiple lenses and switch between them. It takes time away from enjoying the moment and adds bulk/weight so I just end up leaving my camera at home in favor of my phone. One of the glaring advantages proper camera systems still have over smart phones is quality zoom ranges though, so lenses like this are an important reason why someone would take their camera out with them on vacation.
Thank you for a great review and for your amazing sample images. I order my Tamron 28-200 and it’s on the way. The fotographers are raving about this lens. Hope I like it too.
This lens has become the core of my light, affordable photography setup. Paired with a Tamron 20mm f/2.8 and a Sony 50mm f/1.8, I have found my ideal kit that doesn’t break the bank or the back. Yes, the cheap 50 has the slowest AF in the world and the 20 has severe barrel distortion (corrected in camera and now profiled in most software) but all 3 are surprisingly sharp and work so well together for a very attractive price and light weight. All are capable of fully resolving to at least 42mp. I have some bigger, heavier, more expensive, “better” lenses but they stay in the studio now or only come out for specific jobs. Under 2kg, including spare batteries and filters all in a stylish shoulder bag.
I’m in the process of rethinking my kit to lighten my base weight. This lens is a big part of it, paired with the Tamron 17-28mm and a fast normal prime.
Pretty torn between this and the new 28-75. For photography I’d go with this hands down but I’m getting more into video now so it’s a harder choice. Although I do already have a set of prime lenses so perhaps this would be the perfect complement after all! I really appreciate all the sample photos and footage in this review. That’s super helpful! Thank you
@Darth Sidious yeah, having fixed aperture for video is super nice but I actually went with the 28-200 more than a year ago and it has been glued to my camera body!! Amazing lens and incredible image quality ☺️
What a great review. I was on the lens snob list and only had primes (24mm, 50mm and 85mm). After trying this lens I'm finally adding reach to my bag and selling the 24mm.
I am having the same lens, before seeing your review I thought that only costly lens can produce incredible photos. But, going through your shots and the settings you used, I realised that talented photographers create stunning visuals irrespective of tools they have. Thank you for posting photos with settings used, I started to rework with the lens. Kindly create video tutorials about fundamentals of photography and techniques that you have mastered......
personally since i feel more comfortable with my choices, basically being experienced somewhat, i normally use lights to "shape" my photos and with the availability of light, i am usually at 5.6 for portraits to keep the model fully in focus or for product f8 to f13. that's something i noticed while using the amazing 35-150 which made me basically feel like carrying the weight of that lens is a waste. i picked the 28-200 and i'm happier to have a lighter weight set up that fulfills most of what i need to do. i don't shoot sports so that's no problem for me. im going even lighter weight with primes as i got myself the 35mm f2.8 samyang which is a pancake lens. soon i'll buy the sigma 90mm f2.8. i might even not use the 28-200 as much unless its for events since events have alot of movement so having a zoom is probably more important and of course, i use a flash light in events too so 5.6 is not a problem. IF i really needed the light, i'll increase the ISO and use ai noise reduction as a last resort.
Bought this lens the other day to replace my Tamron 28-75 and my Sony70-200 f.4 in my travel camera bag. Also switched from Sony a7iii to the a7c and am looking forward to trying them all out on a trip! I plan to take the 17-28 for wide angle and my Sony/Zeiss 55 f1.8 prime for low light, etc.
@@DigitalHINDUs It's a perfect combination and feels well balanced on the a7C. The combo fits nicely into a 3L Peak Design sling. I have the new Tamron 20-40 f2.8 on order to make for a great two lens travel kit. I think both will fit into a 6L PD sling. Enjoy your new lens!
Awesome review and great sample images! I really wish the tecnology someday will allow us to have this amazing focal length with a constant of F2.8. Now that the Tamron 35-150mm f2-2.8 is in the picture, I think it's not gonna be far off right? I shudder to think about the sheer size of the lens though.
Great Video. I currently own a Tamron 20-40 for my a7C and love that lens because of its size, weight and performance. But I miss the zoom sometimes. I am confused whether to buy a Tamron 28-200 or Tamron 70-300 to add to my lens. I don't do any professional work and use my camera kit only for travel. Please help me choose the right lens.
I have this Tamron lens. Overall is great, just a tad soft above 100mm but it's to be expected on a lens design such a this. That said, is leaps and bounds better than my older Sony 24-240mm it replaces.
Tamron and Sigma have been changing the rules, I got Tamron 18-300 for apsc (Sony A6400) and that lens is something out of this world sharp and colors pop. also,video stabilization is just miles ahead even of Sony's 18-135 and 18-105, IQ is much better. How can 3rd party lens beat native lenses in terms of image stabilization is just wild.
They are changing the rules. They spend more time on development than Sony in my opinion. Sony seems to be trying less to be competitive. Tamron has to do something different to stay relevant, and they do
I am a bit torn between this lens and the Sony 24-105 F4, for landscape and everyday, street photography. I want to replace the 28-70 kit lens which I got with the A7 IV, also have a 18mm Samyang which is sorta ok.
This lens is honestly the reason that I stay with the sony a7iv over the lumix s5ii. It is just so versatile and light. This and two primes and I want for nothing. Makes my kit so light. I want that lumix stabilization and colour, but I just can't give this lens up.
it is a decent lens. You make what you have work for you ... there is always "better" lens or a camera out there but they won't make you a better photographer or film maker. Stick with your a7IV, still great camera
Hi Pav! Thanks for a great review. I love your channel and watch all your videos. I am considering this lens, and was wondering what you think. My only use will be family vlogs and travel videoed with the family. I like changing between selfie filming and zoomed in shots of building details etc. Currently I carry two cameras for this, but that is really a hassle. Could this lens be the solution for me? I use an A7c. 28mm is wide enough for me but I am a bit worried about not having OSS at 200mm.
Thank you for watching. I really like this lens. At 200mm OSS wouldn't help much either - it is what it is and with that focal range, outstanding sharpness, really good af and very good price (if you shop around) it is one of the most versatile lenses that I have ever used. I think samples in my video say it all 😉
I have the GM 24 mm, but when we start travelling again I consider adding this lens and the new Sigma 65 mm f2. What do you think about such a travel trio?
That sounds like a solid kit although I think the 65 will be a bit tight for many indoor situations. I'm guessing you want that f2 for lower light scenarios indoors where a 65 is probably not as useful as a 35 or 50. But my all-time favorite focal length is 35 so I'm definitely biased here. If you love the 65mm look then this will definitely be a nice kit!
I'm torn between this and Tamron 28-75 2.8 G2. I can get both somewhat similar price. I likely use it for travel and also to take portrait of my partner and us while traveling. Constant 2.8 is leaning me towards the 28-75 G2 but any advice will help! :)
Yeah I'm thinking G2 as well. I have a a7r ii. So for 42mp G2 might be better. You think up to 70 mm there'll be much difference in apature performance between these two lenses for portrait and low light? But daym I love that 200 mm zoom haha.
Great video, Pav! Sounds like an excellent lens. I'm about to switch to Sony FF in the next couple of months and I wonder if I should rather grab this 28-200 together with the 17-28 to cover all my stuff in terms of landscape photography and get one or two primes for portraits instead of buying the full "holy trinity" (17-28, 28-75, 70-180). Any thoughts?
@@PavSZ Yeah, I see. I did some extended research over the weekend and although it is quite tempting to get just one lens instead of two, I think I'll have to go with the trinity as long as I demand a decent level of overall quality und speed to that whole range since I mostly do landscape/nature photography. Would have loved to see something connecting like the 35-150 but not that huge and heavy, maybe with a 28-150 constant f2.8 or at least as an 2.8 - 4. Than it'd be a no-brainer in my case. Until then it's gonna be always that trade-off between IQ and portability. 🤷🏻♂
@@PavSZ really? That’s interesting. I thought previously you had high praise for the OSS on the Sony lens for video shooting… good to see that you find that the Tamron lens is perfectly fine for commercial video work. 👍🏻🙏🏻
@@ChristopheLanglois a7IIIs IBIS works very well with this lens - it's that focal range making this so attractive package overall to me. Very versatile
@@PavSZ agreed. I bought that lens a while back and I also love the versatility it offers. Part of me has always wondered if the Sony 24-105mm wouldn’t have been the better choice overall though… especially for video work. Having said that, I am more and more interested in compact setups: I am even considering buying the Sigma 28-70mm dg dn to use everyday: would you personally stick with the Tamron 28-200mm for casual shooting? Thanks again for your comments.
@@ChristopheLanglois the tamron is not a right choice if you ever intend to zoom in while filming. That changeable aperture would be a problem. For everything else - especially the bokeh and photography, I'd go with Tamron. For video for Sony
I think it's completely different type of lens. Until I read your comment, it never crossed my mind to compare these two to each other. Two completely different tools.
Hello, I just bought the lens and it arrived today. However it is fairly stiff to zoom.. Is this because I bought a demo model that has been on display in the shop? Will it get less stiff the more I use or??
I can't say that the one I tested had stiff zoom ring. There might be an issue with your copy. If it actually works and you don't have to force it to zoom in and out, I'd keep it.
It is impossible to answer your question. I don't know you, what your experience is, what you need a lens for, your budget etc. Only you can decide which lens is better for you.
@@PavSZ I'm having problems balancing it of weebil s. Vibration is coming at certain angles. Tried doing auto tune then also lowering motor strength but not having luck. It is properly balanced but yet not having luck
@@PavSZ It is 200mm because is m4/3 and is 24mm in a wild end, yeah is only f4, you can manage f4 but you can't menage missing 2mm in a wild, most people prefers lens to be a little bit wild even if it's darker.
Anyone had experience with this lens and tamron 35-150 too and could give a honest advice about purchase? I am talking more of photographer or videographer experience than technical comparison.
@@PavSZHi Pav, thank you for reaching out. The dilemma borns when you consider the two lenses on a travel side and you know in advance that the variable aperture tending to 5.6 of the 28-200 will cause some problem in a lot of situation with poor light; on the other hand you have a bulky pro lens with f2 starting, that will gather more attention and will be a pain in packing and traveling all day long in any sort of environment. I own a sigma 24-70 Art that I love it but many time I find it too short. So I considered to add the tamron 70-180, but packing and weight would be a problem. I am scared to go on the tamron 28-200 and losing too much of the quality used to thanks to my sigma 24-70 in order to gain some reach.
"I heard something somewhere....." if everyone started their opinion with those 4 words the world would be a better place. Because opinions formed after that statement inevitably are based off of someone else's opinion that have no idea what they're talking about.........
Are you a fan of super zooms like this?
Have used the Canon 18-200. Very good range but the image quality was not really appealing. This Tammy seems much better, but that could be your handling and skills at work as much as anything to do with the lens itself :)

@@PavSZ ill try again for the 4th time 😂
Can you shoot at 200mm f2.8?
no. It has got changeable aperture. More you zoom more it closes. f2.8 is only at 28mm and f5.6 at 200mm
Looks good. Do you think it’s good enough to do weddings ?
I really think it is, especially when paired with a7III or newer so you can safely crank the ISO up when needed
Just to let you know - best and most versatile lens is Olympus 12-100 f4, Tamron 28-200 is close second
It's only 100mm and only f4
@@PavSZ It is 200mm because is m4/3 and is 24mm in a wild end, yeah is only f4, you can manage f4 but you can't menage missing 2mm in a wild, most people prefers lens to be a little bit wild even if it's darker.
I wish we could also know physical distance between you and the subject. Is this pointless for me wanting to know this?
it is pointless and seriously impractical to measure while taking pictures. Why would you want to know that?
I would have to say that the Olympus 12-100mm (24-200mm)f4
Maybe
Anyone had experience with this lens and tamron 35-150 too and could give a honest advice about purchase? I am talking more of photographer or videographer experience than technical comparison.
I have reviewed both on my channel.
35-150 is bigger, heavier and in a different class than this 28-200mm
@@PavSZHi Pav, thank you for reaching out.
The dilemma borns when you consider the two lenses on a travel side and you know in advance that the variable aperture tending to 5.6 of the 28-200 will cause some problem in a lot of situation with poor light; on the other hand you have a bulky pro lens with f2 starting, that will gather more attention and will be a pain in packing and traveling all day long in any sort of environment.
I own a sigma 24-70 Art that I love it but many time I find it too short. So I considered to add the tamron 70-180, but packing and weight would be a problem.
I am scared to go on the tamron 28-200 and losing too much of the quality used to thanks to my sigma 24-70 in order to gain some reach.
"I heard something somewhere....." if everyone started their opinion with those 4 words the world would be a better place. Because opinions formed after that statement inevitably are based off of someone else's opinion that have no idea what they're talking about.........
so true
