Review on Tamron A16NII 17 50Mm Aspherical International by Ivan Ivanov ᠌
The purchase brought only positive emotions.
On the D90, where I work, I was able to afford it. Since I won't be using it myself, all I can do is express my initial reactions. At a pleasing 2.8, the focus is razor-sharp. Even though a stabilizer isn't strictly necessary at that focal length, I feel much better about the $1420 I spent on a lens with a 14200 stub. The price is noted as $22022, which is a large sum. If you had to choose between a sigma, a tokina, and a tamron 17-50 2.8, go with the tamron, but handle it with care.
- clarity and brightness. As far as the tamron's zoom allows. The tamron has the most exquisite resolution and patterning among lenses in this focal range (17-50 or thereabouts). If you're comparing to Nikkor, you're wasting your time and money.
- You must make a decision. In one store, I made four consecutive lens purchases. The issue can be fixed with an adjustment, but it's best to get rid of it immediately, especially if the lens doesn't reside in Hong Kong.
