Tamron 35-150mm f/2.8-4 Review
Tamron reported the advancement of three new focal points: the 35mm f/1.4 for DSLRs, the 17-28mm f/2.8 for Sony FE, and the 35-150mm f/2.8-4 for DSLRs. We simply got the 35-150mm f/2.8-4 Di VC OSD for Nikon F mount to try out for a couple of days. It's continually energizing to try out new apparatus, and particularly energizing when it's an exceptional focal point like the 35-150mm.
The 35-150mm is set apart as a quick and reduced "representation zoom" that can cover an expansive scope of shooting, from ecological pictures to tight headshots. With the wide zoom extend, the focal point is likewise ideal for movement and road shooting and has a great close center separation.
The Specs
4.9" long
27.9oz
Least centering separation – 1.48'
77mm channel string
Low Dispersion glass to limit chromatic deviation/shading bordering.
Aspherical components for ideal sharpness edge-to-edge, and flare decrease
Improved Silent Drive (OSD) engine for calmer self-adjust
Double Micro-Processing Unit (MPU) for quick and exact AF execution.
Vibration Compensation (VC) to limit camera shake when shooting handheld.
Dampness Resistant Construction for all climate use.
Focal point Design
The 35-150mm is moderately conservative however has a strong vibe in the hand. The outside plan is like most current Tamron focal points with a glossy silk complete and the gold-like trim around the focal point mount. The catches are insignificant – an AF/MF switch, and a switch for the VC. Not at all like a portion of the other Tamron long range focal points, there is no VC Mode choice on this focal point. The main other switch on the focal point is a barrel lock that can be bolted when the focal point is at 35mm and at its most smaller size.
The zoom ring is wide and simple to turn, with a moderate measure of opposition. The centering ring is close to the front component, and simply like the as of late discharged 17-35mm f/2.8-4, the center ring turns as the focal point self-adjusts, which can be an inconvenience from certain picture takers who hold the focal point close to the hood. Talking about the hood, not at all like some sub $1,000 focal points, it was decent and tight and bolted on with no issues or worries of it getting to be opened.
The focal point was obviously intended for picture photographic artists as a primary concern, with prevalent representation prime central separations on the focal point barrel (35/50/85/105/135/150).
Being a variable opening focal point, the Tamron 35-150mm stops down as you zoom in, however not so much as certain focal points with this much zoom. The following is the breakdown of central length and opening.
Utilizing alignment programming, we ran an opening test to at what gap the focal point is most honed. Central lengths utilized were 35mm @ f/2.8 and 150mm @ f/4. At the wide end, top sharpness was at f/5.6, however it's fundamentally the same as from f/4-8, and at 150mm, top sharpness was at f/7.1, with results being genuinely close between f/4 and f/11. The red DLA line means where the focal point may start to hint at diffraction.
Vignetting is available when wide open, at the two finishes of the zoom extend, however begins to turn out to be exceptionally negligible at f/4 @ 35mm, and f/5.6 @ 150mm. No Lightroom focal point profile redresses are accessible yet, yet ought to effortlessly have the option to fix any vignetting once it is refreshed.
The main day of utilizing the focal point, the climate cloudy, foggy, and with intermittent downpour. Indeed, even subsequent to getting somewhat wet, the focal point performed immaculately. The AF engine clamor is negligible – not as quiet as a portion of Tamron's G2 quick zooms like the 70-200 or 24-70, however not excessively diverting, however videographers probably won't be a major devotee of this focal point if utilizing on camera mics. The wide zoom run makes it incredible for catching full-body pictures just as those tight headshots without swapping glass.
The center is quick and exact, however we didn't get an opportunity to test it out in any quick activity situations on day 1. It ought to be more than adequate for representation and road picture takers. The sharpness is great for a focal point with about 4.3x optical zoom. For somebody hoping to supplant their "unit" focal point on their full casing Nikon (24-120mm/4) or Canon (24-105mm f/4), this is an incredible decision that gives you a quicker gap and more zoom length, with the tradeoff being that it begins at 35mm rather than 24mm.
Activity Shots
The following day, so as to put the self-adjust under a magnifying glass, the focal point was utilized amid a track and field occasion. Despite the fact that no the quickest, the self-adjust kept up generally, with negligible out of center photographs amid rapid overflows with the D500. A 70-200 f/2.8 would be a superior alternative for this circumstance, however for those searching for a one focal point arrangement, it's unquestionably equipped for catching the minutes you need.
Last Thoughts
The Tamron 35-150mm f/2.8-4 is an interesting focal point that interests to buyers, prosumers, and experts alike. With its $799 sticker price for a generally "quick" focal point that is sharp, little, and amazingly adaptable, it's an extraordinary deal. Matched with the Tamron 17-35mm f/2.8-4, it's an incredible 2 focal point combo to cover the wide to medium fax extend, with a quick opening, and minimal size.
