Not that great in low light situations. Hunts quite a bit. Light weight and portability make up for it.

Great Lens for my Nikon D610

1. Freitag abends super Sonderangebot auf ClickElectronics gesehen und zugeschlagen. Lieferung Samstag 10 Uhr – schneller geht’s nicht mehr! Schlichte Box, Optik, Sonnenblende, Front-Rückdeckel – alles super passend und nicht mehr frickelig wie noch vor Kurzem. 5 Jahre Tamron EU Garantie inklusive. 2. Habe die Optik schon länger immer wieder angesehen und viele Rezensionen gelesen. Eigentlich nicht wirklich nötig, da ich die Nikon 24-120 f4.0 habe. Dennoch: die Konzeption ist bestechend (auch wenn einige die Sinnhaftigkeit einer 35-150mm Optik anzweifeln). Alleine ist sie eine tolle Reiseoptik – offenblendig bereits schön scharf mit guten Kontrasten und angenehmer Farbwiedergabe. In Kombination mit dem 17-35mm 2.8 – 4.0 und dem 150-600mm G2 (wenn man gerne schleppt) wirklich gut durchdacht, da es keine Überschneidung der Brennweitenbereiche gibt und auch für Urlaubsreisen bestens geeignet, wenn mann nicht tiefer in Tasche greifen, bzw. schleppen möchte für durchgehende und weit schwerere 2.8er Zooms. Anbei ein paar Testbilder inkl. Nachtaufnahme mit einem 100% Crop eines Gripsfries. Angenehm ist auch die Möglichkeit leichter Makroaufnahmen. Meines Erachtens optisch und vom Bildstabilisator einen Tick besser als die 24-120 f4.0 , und besser nach unten mit leichter Optik ergänzbar (17-35mm 2.8-4.0), nach oben auch gut, aber mit schwererer Optik (Tamron 150-600mm f5-6.3); allerdings mit rotierendem Frontteil beim Fokussieren (was ich wusste und mich auch nicht sonderlich stört – man sollte aber die Finger beim hinteren Zoomring lassen). Der Bildstabilisator arbeitet wirklich hervorragend, der AF ist für “normale” Aufnahmen gut – für schnell bewegende Objekte zu langsam. Kann die Optik nur empfehlen (harmoniert sehr gut mit der D850)- wenn man mit dem rotierenden Frontteil leben kann.

Keine eierlegende Wollmilchsau, aber sehr gutes Reiseobjektiv

I’ve had this lens for less than a day, and so far, I’m very impressed. No regrets spending $800 on it.The lens is wonderfully sharpeven wide open, even at the longest focal lengthand at most settings the sharpness extends all the way out to the edges of the frame. Having been accustomed to the performance characteristics of the Nikkor 24-120mm f/4, I was quite surprised that this Tamron maintains excellent sharpness throughout its zoom rangeeven at the long end, where the Nikkor performs at its worst. Unlike many zooms, the Tamron is actually least impressive at its shortest focal length, where the center of the image is sharp, but edge acuity isn’t great until you stop down to at least f/4. Tamron calls this lens a “portrait zoom”, and it does seem to be optimized for the typical portrait focal lengths from 50mm through 135mm. The 35mm short end seems like a bonus, rather than the focus of the lens (pun intended).Autofocus is very reliable, except perhaps (on my copy at least) at the short end of the zoom range, where there seems to be a bit of inconsistency depending on the direction the focus motor is turning (my copy focuses better when the lens is going from a shorter distance to a longer). Autofocus speed is quite leisurely. The lens seemingly takes almost a full second to rack focus from infinity to MFD or vice versa. Also, the AF motor is not particularly quiet. I believe it’s a micromotor instead of a ring motor like Nikon’s SWM. Still, it’s nowhere near as noisy as some screw-drive lenses.Manual-focus action is decent, and it’s mechanical, not fly-by-wire. Unusually for a modern lens, the focus ring turns during autofocuswhich isn’t great, because you have to remember to keep your fingers off the ring or risk stressing the AF motor. Also, the lens lacks any kind of focus scale. (Hyperfocal distance? What’s that?)This lens focuses really close! At MFD, when the lens is zoomed in to 150mm, the front of the lens is something like 6 inches from the subject. And the magnification at that working distance1:3.7is higher than that of some zooms that call themselves “macro” lenses. This is a versatile lens.Image stabilization works very well. If your handholding skill is any good, the stabilization on this lens will make the image in the viewfinder simply rock-steady. It works better than the VR on the aforementioned Nikkor 24-120mm. The VC motor is very quiet when engaging and disengaging, unlike that on some older Tamron lenses such as the 70-300mm f/4-5.6.I was afraid the lens would be heavy for my taste, being about 10% heavier than the Nikkor 24-120mm (a lens that already feels a bit heavy to me). Surprisingly, it actually doesn’t feel too heavy. But what it does feel is bulky. This is a very thick-bodied lenstoo thick to be comfortable for small hands.The exterior of the lens is made of good-quality plastic. The surface finish is smooth matte. I worry that it will scratch easily, and that the scratches will show well. Overall, the fit and finish of the lens is excellent for a consumer/prosumer model. The zoom action feels pretty goodnice and consistent throughout the zoom range, without play, but with an undamped feel. It could use a little lubrication. There is a zoom lock switch that seems unnecessary, since there is no hint of zoom creep. The lens is shortest at the 35mm focal length and longest at 150mm, at which point the forward inner barrel sticks out about two inches. Impressively, there is ZERO movement when you grab the front of the extended barrel and try to wiggle it laterally. That’s quality! I just hope it stays that way.

This is a great lens…best walkaround lens that I have ever used.
