The ‘Generation 2’ edition of Tamron’s 24-70mm f/2.8 is a major improvement...
I was skeptical at first. Could a third-party lens actually match the name brands, at THE focal length for which the name brands are best known for making reliable, snappy-to-focus, nearly-indestructible, lens?
Playing with light, capture a subtle world of beauty. A high-speed standard zoom lens featuring built-in Vibration Compensation.
If you had the breath to read our review until here, you might be thinking that the Tamron SP 24-70mm f/2.8 Di VC USD G2 isn't worth it. That is not our conclusion, though. As mentioned above, fast standard zoom lenses are difficult to design and they always come with some compromises.
Simply put, you won't find a better 24-70 on the Nikon side for this little. Sigma may have theirs, but the image stabilization isn't NEARLY as effective.
There’s always something to be said for sticking with your camera manufacturer’s own lenses, especially at the top end of the quality range. However, Tamron is now making lenses that offer similar quality at more affordable prices, and this is a great standard zoom lens for full-frame photographers,...
Excellent build quality and handling, Superb 5-stop stabilizer, Mostly sharp with beautiful bokeh
Could be sharper at 70mm and f/2.8, Noticeable vignetting at 24mm and f/2.8
After one year of regular usage the wide rubber band, the one you spin to zoom, stretched and became loose and now moves along the lens so I need to pull it back, where it should be, every 30 min. It does not affect good image quality but I would never buy a Tamron lens again.
yes, at the price it is being offered it is cheaper here than it is even in the US. so thats a great buy
Got a good deal because of the disount
Nowhere on the website does it say it's a grey import. do not expect proper warranty cover!
Bought this lens instead of the Nikon 24-70 because it has VC and it's less expensive while still being made in Japan. Optically excellent performance, build quality is very good but the switches feel kinda cheap. I also own the Tamron 15-30 VC and I'm very happy with my purchases!
