I bought this lens thinking that an f 2.8 would allow a 28-75 lens to shoot telephoto without flash. It won't, even in sunlight.
By Jason Phillips (Greensboro, NC USA)
A great lens for the more serious photographer, achieving the highly sought after f stop of 2.8 and with image stabilization. A great choice for those that don't enjoy spending twice as much to have a white canon L series lens!
By Robert Cox (Ponca City, OK USA)
I needed a mid range f/2.8 zoom and checked out a bunch of them before purchasing this Tamron.
The lens is extremely sharp and the f/2.8 speed is just what I needed for stage and concert photography. It focuses fast, and never misses a lick.
Other than saying that I am more than happy what else is there?
By Randi Morse
I'd been told to get a Tamron lens - I was a bit worried. I tend to stick with brand names, and this was a lens that wasn't a Canon. But a few photographers had told me of the high quality of this lens so I got it, and I'm very glad I did. I can definitely see the difference between this lens and my other walk around lens - this one is much sharper and the photos require very little editing. And with the much lower price, I will definitely be looking to purchase a Tamron again!
By Matthew Herrmann
Most of the good reviews say exactly what I would say, so I'll save us all some time and get to the point. This lens is outstanding! I read every review on here, as well as additional reviews elsewhere to make sure I got the best lens for my money, and I did! I have a Canon 50D and wanted a lens for:
-Portraits
-Walk around
-Landscape
So far I've been very impressed with everything from the build quality of the lens to the auto focus, and picture quality. If you are looking for a fast, versatile zoom lens for under $500 you would be hard pressed to beat this lens. Before purchasing the Tamron 28-75 f/2.8 my primary lens was the Canon 50mm f/1.8. The 28mm on this Tamron actually surprised me at how wide it was. Like I said I am shooting a Canon 50D with a 1.6 fovcf so my 50mm was actually an 80mm and this 28-75 is actually a 45-135mm, and carries the f/2.8 all the way through. I have used this lens the last 3 days for a photography project at the University I work at, and have been extremely impressed.
