So thankful for Dustins reviews, so thorough, and you can bank on his advice, never let me down once and Ive made quite a few purchases based on his thoughtful reviews. I hope to see camera companies invest more in him, he is a valuable asset to photographers.
Thank you. I do my best to deliver as objective of reviews as I can.
Another excellent review.
You have previously undertaken detailed reviews of the Fuji 18-60 and 18-135 in this general type of focal range.
It would seem this lens is both far more capable, not to mention cheaper, than the dedicated Fuji offerings mentioned.
Is it your intention to, time permitting, to undertake a comparison of these 3 lens?
Or perhaps a follow-up video, revisiting the Fuji zooms referred to in light of what appears to be this game changer from Tamron?
Fantastic review, as always.
Thank you very much.
Great video dustin , looking sharp as always mate and happy new year.
Thanks, Robert!
Awesome as always. Thank you....
You're welcome!
Dustin, Great review as always! I sold my Zony 16-70 f4 a couple years ago and just use the sigma "trio". I'll be ordering this lens soon!
I think you'll really enjoy it.
Ты думаешь стоить продовать оптику sigma и покупать этот объектив?
This is really great to hear! I have the Sony 16-55/2.8, and it's a terrific lens, but for "walking around" I always feel I'm a bit constrained by the 55mm a bit. I suspect this lens will spell the end for my A7R III with 24-105, as well as my 16-55/2.8 and maybe the 18-135 as well. Saving me a whole lot of money!
It really is a nice replacement for a 24-105, for sure.
Damn this is lens is gonna replace my 18-135 !!! wow good review, good video !
Enjoy!
Dustin thank you for your professional reviews! As always 👍
I have Tamron 70-180 2.8 for Sony FE
I have Carl Zeiss Loxia and you know what magic those lenses are.
My first thought about Loxia is "trust" when I take it with me I know I can get the best results.
(Depends only from my skills) 😂
I also have Sony the cheaper ones F1.8
And recently got Tamron !
WOW I am impressed, already sold one of my Sony lenses and I am suprise how good tamron is even compare with Loxia.
Best regards from Poland 😊
Recent Tamron lenses are definitely much better than you might expect.
My dude, I need to know where that overcoat came from, it's beautiful. Also my 17-70 is in the mail and I'm excited about it, but mostly that overcoat
People love the coat. I got it from here: bit.ly/TheCoatDA
I like your framing here! very good! :)
Thank you.
The Sony/APSC bodies were starting to look like racecars without tires - simply crippled for their design purpose. Tamron may have actually saved Sony's product line from a Fuji wipeout...for another 1-2 years anyway. Great review as always Dustin!
Good illustration.
Alphabet soup 😂. Great video as usual Dustin 👍🏼
Thanks :)
Hey Dustin! When is the Sony 35 1.4 GM video coming out?
When I get the lens to test...which I haven't yet.
When will we be able to buy this lens? Great review BTW!
Hi Anthony, I think shipment starts around the end of the month.
How would you compare this lens to the sigma 18-50 f2.8?
This lens is sharper (and has VC along with a bigger zoom range), but the Sigma is a lot smaller and has nicer bokeh.
A6600 + this lense gives A7 III + 24-105 F4 a run for its money :) Basically, it's the same FOV and DoF in a smaller package and with better sharpness. The only negative is the fact that it's only for Sony APS-C, and it looks like Sony kind of gave up on APS-C. I can only imagine how well this lens would sell on Fuji.
Fair points all.
Mr A which lens would you choose this one or the Sony 16-55?
I haven't tested the Sony, but, looking at the MTF's, the price, and the fact that the Tamron has VC, I'd most likely go Tamron.
@@DustinAbbottTWI That's definitely the direction I'm leaning towards
came for the lens, stayed for the cat.
LOL
Dustin sir superb video as always,
this 17-70 lens is
$200 more than Sony 16-70 &
$300 more than Sony 18-105 f/4.
Which lens will be better for travel or beginner wedding photography?
It's so strange how much Tamron's pricing changes from market to market. I personally think the Tamron remains the best option on the platform, though.
This 17-70 is perfect. My 6400 is complete.
@@keystonebrotherb I’m getting mine today
@@sidehustlers336
I moved on to an A7iv!
@@keystonebrotherb nice. It’s a great all around camera. I also picked up a A7IV. And kept my 6400. I use the 6400 as a backup/ travel camera. And the light apsc lenses for 4K 60 video on the A7IV. So convenient
How does it compare ( optically only ) to the Sony 24 to 105mm F 4 G?
Thanks in advance.
I haven't really done any kind of direct comparison. The Tamron should be a bit sharper, I would say
@@DustinAbbottTWI thank you so much.
i want to ask some question. Is it worth to replacing my e 18-105 f4 and e 35mm f1.8 with this tamron? Need suggestion. Thanks
I can't really answer that question for you as I don't know your shooting needs. I can tell you that this is a very, very good lens.
@@DustinAbbottTWI thanks for the respond. I need lens for street photography. Is this tamron better than 2 lens i mention above?
I would say it is.
is it just me, or is the sound slightly lagging behind the video?
I've had a slight issue at times with one of my mics.
Audio and video is out of sync.
Why can't Tamron make Fuji lenses :'(
Maybe they will, in the future, but Fuji was very, very late in opening up their platform, and now it is costing them.
My girlfreind was thinking about that lense but the Bokeh is so horrible and the color reproduction is too.
She was thinking about getting the SIGMA 18-35mm f/1.8, the Sony G 16-50mm f/2.8 and the Tamron 17-70mm f/2.8
After watching tons of reviews and being able to test all of them for a few days, she decided for the 13-35mm f/1.8
Sure, it is much more limiting, but the resulting images looked just so much better in terms of Colors and Bokeh. To come around the lack of focal range, she is thinking about topping up with the 50-100mm f/1.8 which means she have to change lenses, but also means she does have 50mm, 70mm 85mm, 100mm all at f/1.8 in one single lense.
And i agreed on that after i seen the resulting images. I rather have 18-35mm f/1.8 and 50-100mm f/1.8 with excellent outstanding image quality than an 17-70mm f/2.8 with horrible bokeh and colors.
I don't think I agree on the color reproduction, but the bokeh is certainly not very appealing. The Sigma has been a popular choice, though. Not really a direct competitor, though, as the focal range is much more limited.
@@DustinAbbottTWI The color reproduction from the Tamron isn't bad, but compared to the 18-35mm f/1.8 there was a visible difference. She tested on the a6600 and developed the Images with Picture One. Most of the time it was the same but at several situations there was quite a difference.
Especially in images involving lots of gray with color nounces (like one picuture of a dam), in the images with the SIGMA you could see colors who have been there in real live, who haven't showed up on the sample shot with the Tamron at all (light green hue and color difference that came from different stone materials).
With the Tamron is was just all gray with different brightness where the SIGMA was able to present very slight brown and green tones that have been on the stone structures.
I am pretty sure that the Tamron (especially for its price) is an awesome lense, and of course, the 18-35mm f/1.8 is a strange comparison.
Zoom lenses are always an compromise and everyone have to decide for himself if he wants to take that compromise or not. Some people decide for an 18-300mm f/3.5-6.3 for an vacation trip.
So if you need 17-70mm f/2.8 in one single lense, there is no other choice. But if someone thinks switching between two lenses is not that of a big deal and ok, the 18-35mm f/1.8 and 50-100mm f/1.8 is a far better option (imho).
Price sir in india
Chan Dan how would Mr.Dustin know price of this Tamron 17-70 f/2.8 in India. You can check on google. Last time i checked it was ₹67,500. Unfortunately its ₹15,000/- more than Sony Zeiss 16-70 f/4 & ₹22,000/- more than Sony 18 105 f/4.
