So true ive been watching her stuff all day she has a way of explaining things in details that i find that a lot of youtubers dont do and i love that she give the examples as she is taking them.
I feel like we're living in a sort of golden age of third party lenses these days. Both Tamron and Sigma have stepped up their game massively in the last 10 years or so. So many good ones to choose from!
Maybe a crazy idea but what about making third party camera bodies? This concept feels very strange but Fujifilm did it with the S3 and S5 pro. They had a Nikon mount. Still have the S3 and use it now and then.
@@Audimann The cameras were more than a mount borrowed from Nikon. Early Fujis borrowed a lot from Nikon. The Bodies were almost an exact copy of Nikons or were Nikon bodies, even the position of the AF focus assist light and the AF/MF switch were exactly the same Nikon D100/200.
Best review on the site so far. No BS, no unnecessary talking, showing every possible occasion. +kindness and beauty of reviewer and the model as an extra bonus. Excellent job!
I have the Tamron zoom trio. I think both the 70-180 and 17-28 are even better than the 28-75 in their respective classes. These lenses make owning a Sony FF so much more accessible for the rest of us. 👍
I just got this lens used from my local camera shop for 725 USD! I was using a 135 when I needed reach and this just makes more sense when needing to pinch in a little more. After buying it I knew I had to watch your video to get your take on it. Totally agree with what you said. Have you ever shared your wedding work? I think you could start a separate channel dedicated to weddings only and it would gain traction.
YES!!! I've been waiting for this review for almost a month 😭 thank you!! I loved what you said about the "run off" on the face with other portrait prime lenses; I never thought about it until you mentioned it. I suppose that is the difference between a 1.8 and a 2.8. GREAT REVIEW!! Thanks again guys!!
Yay thank you so much!! Glad you liked it :D Yeah I generally like the 1.2 look for portraits, but it's definitely nice to change it up a little to 2.8 to have the whole face in focus. Both ways looks great so I should do it more often haha
I love your videos Julia! You have a sweet easy going way to demonstrate the different qualities of the product. In this case you have convinced me to get the tamron lens for my Sony A7R, thank you 😊
hmm i've been watching videos and stuff on the cineeye. anyone happen to know if it automatically transmits the image from your screen to a device? and then do you record from the device?
@@BryanMiraflor I just got the Cineeye for that purpose and struggling to figure out how to get the image from the camera on while using the cineeye for photography.
This is definitely a superb lens for this kind of work. As an approx 2.3X lens distortion should be minimal for a zoom too and you can see that in the photos. I think Tamron is doing some really good lenses for Sony as Sony owns a significant chunk of Tamron. Tamron as a specialist lens creator certainly know their science and materials really well and these days are producing highly competitive lenses. I, personally would have no qualms about buying and using it.
Julia, great video, it covers all the basis to know the differences within the range of this kind f zoom, irregardless of the brand, I was surprised that you had to step back so far to be able to get a full body shot , so, for events with limited space, probably primes on the range from 35 to 85 would be better based on your demo. Keep up the good work, we are learning from your experience and that can translate in less frustration in choosing our gear (not to mention less money if you end buying something that would not be useful)....cheers
Absolutely lovely images. This seems to be a great all around tele lens for portraits. I'd love to see a real life comparison between the Tamron 70-180mm and the Sony 70-200mm f4 G OSS... Most comparisons I have seen are between the Sony 70-200mm f/2.8 GM lens and the Tamron which is logical because they are both f/2.8. However the price and weight of the Sony 70-200mm f/4 G and Tamron 70-180mm are pretty similar...
Great video. I just picked this lens up a few days ago and love it. Sold my Samyang 50 and 85 f/1.4 primes. Now Im just waiting for the new Tamron 35-150 f/2-2.8 to come out soon, that will be perfect. Ultimate portrait/wedding lens.
Hi Julia I noticed most of the shoot was done at shutter speed of 1/350 and above . I'm curious to see how this lens perform at shutter speed of 1/160 or 1/180. Was there any blur? Also did you notice any diffraction at f8 , F11 or above? Other than these two concerns I am totally convinced to buy this lens..Thankyou for the review
I wondered the same thing. It looks like she has an Accsoon CineEye attached to her camera with tape and some sort of screw "bracket". (vid 1:02 - 1:06). Then she's "probably" recording the screen of the phone/tablet she's transmitting to. Hope that's helpful.😃
Before the bokeh test I was just looking through all the comparisons for difference in bokeh but it wasn't so evident. But when you finally said bokeh test, it made me going "Yay! This is just what I wanted!" Thanks Julia!
Hey Julia, you are so talented, you bring out the best in all your equipment. I think the lens does a good job but it’s also cos you know how to use to it to bring out the best of the lens.
I remember when I first heard about this lens coming out I was so excited for it!! but then covid happened, and the marching band and color guard events I was shooting stopped for most of the year....so I didn't buy it. But now that things are finally opening up again I decided to go back and do some research on this lens and I'm glad to see it did well last year. I can't wait to get it and start using it. Thanks for doing this review. I also liked watching how you did your shoot.
Great job, Julia! This lens is pretty impressive, I guess Tamron’s version of a 70-200 2.8. Serena’s posing is fantastic with great interaction between you and the camera. Did you miss the extra 20mm over a 70-200?
I would 100% miss the extra 20mm. I had a Tamron 70-200 2.8 (now have the Sigma version) for Canon EF, so I guess it's something to do with it being a Sony FE mount lens.
@@theockle the 70-200 focal length is pretty arbitrary. Lens manufacturers just happened to decide that they want lenses to have this range because everyone else seems to be doing it. It could have been 60-180, 80-220, 50-200 etc.
@@theockle Tamron have a shorter focal length on all their 2.8 zooms for Sony compared to Sony's G Master lenses, which are the classic 16-35mm, 24-70mm & 70-200mm all 2.8, with the Tamron's being 17-28mm, 28-75mm and 70-180mm. The reason they are shorter is so the lenses can be smaller than the Sony equivalents but still have that f2.8 aperture, making them better for travellers and also people who dont have the budgets for the Sony G Master versions. All the f2.8 Tamron zooms together are just under £/$3000 where as just one of the f2.8 Sony lenses are £/$2500, you loose out on zoom range on all the lenses and stabilisation but you get a cheaper, lighter/smaller lens.
Nice video. I have the Nikon z version of that lens, and I like it. Meanwhile, I know you have your own shooting style, but for me, I get sharper results when I hold the camera's viewfinder up to my eye, while bracing my elbows on my body (or one hand on my head if shooting verticals).
Yeah I did my first shoot with this lense 2 weeks ago and I freaking loved it! Can’t wait to use it for an event! Oh and that shot at 8:05 is amazing! 👌🏾
nice close ups, nice and sharp, thinking to complete my 3io... duo now, well, Tamron lens, own ultrawide and famous standard zoom and looking into this! just wondering what's the cables from cam are for? Great vid!
Julia, it was great to see this lens in action/ I could really get a sense of the handling of it. How did find using it without having in lens stabilization? That is my main concern about this lens .Thanks to you, and to Dan and Serena for this entertaining and informative video.
I had used the Sony G 70-200 f4 with stabilization, for one year. In my case, it was worth it to get the wider apertures and faster shutter speeds and let go of the lens stabilization. The in-body stabilization of my a7iii alone isn't as helpful, of course, as having both body and lens stabilized especially at the longest focal lengths, but I barely miss it when I'm able to capture at faster shutters (and when I think of the better value, bokeh, image sharpness) :)
Thank you so much 😊 As someone else mentioned the A7III has ibis so personally for me, it was enough. In the bottom right hand corner of the video you can see what I see on the screen while taking photos, and when I have the camera up to shoot it is pretty stable the majority of the time. I would think that without ibis in a camera body though, it would be a bit of an issue!
Nice one Julie. Got the 70-180. But How would you compare the bokeh, compression and image quality of the 70-180 at high focal length vs the 135 GM 1.8. 🤔 Thinking of getting the 135 but is still over 2k after discount
How would it turn out in a Sony A6xxx? I'm thinking about the new 70-180 G2 and the sigma 70-200 2.8 that comes out next month. Thank you very much and health 😎
Very nice review, very nice model, very nice pics ! all perfect ; ) Thx, I'm currently wondering which lens would be better for me between Sony F/4 or Tamron F/2.8 ... ; )
I hope you picked this lens over 70-200 because of the light weightness and the size... I always enjoy your videos and reviews etc.. Thanks for sharing 😋😋
Yeah considering the range of this lens, it was really comfy to shoot with on the day! I remember back in the day I used to use the Canon 70-200 2.8 for live music and festival photography, and my arms would be SO SORE the following day from how heavy that lens was 😂
The more I look at this lens, the more that I think a two lens kit with the 70-180mm and 28-75mm Tamron lenses on the A7iii would be all that I would need for most travel photography. I am not a great fan of wide angle shooting so 28mm would be wide enough for me on a full frame camera. The high ISO performance and IBIS of the A7iii would allow me to capture images at f/2.8 even in dim lighting conditions.
I now have the Tamron 70-180mm AND the Tamron 28-75mm and I picked up a used 14mm f/2.8 that is in great shape. I don't do wide angle shooting very often (especially wide angle portraits)... The 28-75mm short side of 28mm (full fame) and 42mm equivalent (APSC) is just about as wide as I want for people shooting. But when I want a wide architecture or landscape shot - I really want to go wide.
@Julia Trottii, I am not a professional photographer nor have wide knowledge in photography but I have to ask a question from you. What is that device on your camera? What is the purpose of that because I’m wondering the usefulness of it on it Sony A7iii? I have a Sony A7iii with a kit lens of 24-70mm F3.5 and is not great on low lights scenes. Is Tamron lens you used on this video a good all around lens? In your outdoor photos do you use extra lights to get a a good shot? I am just a hobbyist and I love documenting our travel trips and my family activities. Any answer is highly appreciated. Thanks!😊
Hi Julia, as always I love your work! I like the versatility of the lens for changes in group size, or changing composition without moving back or forward. I am at that point now though where I am not adding to my arsenal for a while. My fave pic was the first bokeh shot at 180mm without all of the negative space at the top. BTW the Chicago invitation still stands! Remember, in this scenario YOU are the model! lol See you next week!
Thank you so much! Yeah I definitely enjoy primes for wider focal lengths, but telephoto I would personally find a zoom a little handier to have. Still trying to decide which way to go.. haha
I recently found your chanel and in many video a can see a little boxe screwed in to the tripod socket with a cable connected to your Sony and I would like to know what is it With the cable seemingly plug into the hdmi port but I cant find anything like that
Hi Julia, I was debating between the canon m6markii and Sony a7 iii . I decided to go with the Sony . Since the good lenses according to reviews are the most $$$ Sony has. Unfortunately that’s out of budget. How is the tamron and canon All focus features? Do they perform just as it would with a Sony lense? I’ll probably be purchasing the kit with 24-70mm lense. I really liked how your images turned out on your behind the scenes using a 24-70mm kit lense.
Like I mentioned in the video, this Tamron lens worked flawlessly with the A7III! I had eye AF, continuous mode AF and a small flexible focus point on my model's face and it never skipped a beat. And yeah the Sony 28-70 kit lens is a really nice budget lens, I want to do another photoshoot with it soon :D
Thank you! I've done a video where I did a photoshoot on my first ever camera, a Pentax K100D and used a vintage lens for that. Would be fun to get some on my A7III as well though!
This video literally covers EVERY aspect of what a photographer wants to know, before considering a purchase... excellent job!
So true ive been watching her stuff all day she has a way of explaining things in details that i find that a lot of youtubers dont do and i love that she give the examples as she is taking them.
Is it just me or can you just listened to her voice all day long... So relaxing 🧘♂️

i subscribed because she's too easy to listen to. her voice is so smooth lol
ASMR :) Julia has a very charming Aussie accent.
Haha aw thank you!
Definitely
I feel like we're living in a sort of golden age of third party lenses these days. Both Tamron and Sigma have stepped up their game massively in the last 10 years or so. So many good ones to choose from!
I totally agree! It's super fun getting to try these out and seeing how far 3rd party lenses have come 🥳
This may be but, their prices are now comparable and in case of some of the the Sigma offerings equal to that of the camera manufacturers offerings.
Maybe a crazy idea but what about making third party camera bodies? This concept feels very strange but Fujifilm did it with the S3 and S5 pro. They had a Nikon mount. Still have the S3 and use it now and then.
Toni ! Sigma did

Ahh thank you!!
Don't even need a 135mm anymore. this is the dream. Your photos are just amazing
The best Tamron 70-180 f2.8 review on youtube. Loved the way comparison shots are put together side by side in the end.
I love the zoomed in shots from far away the best (180mm). Makes the face a bit thinner and gives a really lovely soft background
Yeah so how come Julie's favourite lens are the wide ones like 35 and 50.

How much is this lens

Julia, it was great to see this lens in action/ I could really get a sense of the handling of it. How did find using it without having in lens stabilization? That is my main concern about this lens .Thanks to you, and to Dan and Serena for this entertaining and informative video.
Sony body has IBIS in it.
I had used the Sony G 70-200 f4 with stabilization, for one year. In my case, it was worth it to get the wider apertures and faster shutter speeds and let go of the lens stabilization. The in-body stabilization of my a7iii alone isn't as helpful, of course, as having both body and lens stabilized especially at the longest focal lengths, but I barely miss it when I'm able to capture at faster shutters (and when I think of the better value, bokeh, image sharpness) :)
Are you keeping this lens? 😁
Thank you so much 😊 As someone else mentioned the A7III has ibis so personally for me, it was enough. In the bottom right hand corner of the video you can see what I see on the screen while taking photos, and when I have the camera up to shoot it is pretty stable the majority of the time. I would think that without ibis in a camera body though, it would be a bit of an issue!
I wish! I have to return it :(
Nice one Julie. Got the 70-180. But How would you compare the bokeh, compression and image quality of the 70-180 at high focal length vs the 135 GM 1.8. 🤔 Thinking of getting the 135 but is still over 2k after discount
I wish I could take pictures and edit so beautiful as you do. Your work is flawless 💕
Aw thank you so much!
Thanks for doing some images with that lens! I really like what Tamron has been doing lately, this lens is no exception.
I'm glad you liked it and I completely agree!
Thanks so much for this... might get this over the sigma 135 now!
Thank you for a great review. I picked up this lens and I am blown away!
Thank you and right! It’s so good 😄
Really nice composition ❤️
Liked before watching ... since I know I will 👍
Aw thank you!

Ahh I hope you enjoyed it :D
Hi Julia, as always I love your work! I like the versatility of the lens for changes in group size, or changing composition without moving back or forward. I am at that point now though where I am not adding to my arsenal for a while. My fave pic was the first bokeh shot at 180mm without all of the negative space at the top. BTW the Chicago invitation still stands! Remember, in this scenario YOU are the model! lol See you next week!
Thank you so much! Yeah I definitely enjoy primes for wider focal lengths, but telephoto I would personally find a zoom a little handier to have. Still trying to decide which way to go.. haha
the sound is way more clean wow
Really good & helpful video - the comparisons are very helpful. Thanks for sharing :)
Very Guided Review for tele zoom buyer ......about lens i say best budget lens in tele zoom series for sony mirrorless system. Thanks for sharing 🙏🏻❤️
How does this lens perform for sports? Is the autofocus can catch a fast moving subject well?
@julia can you make a video on how the cineeye works? that would be awesome
I shoot with the tamron 70-200 g2 and I love that lens!! So sharp!!
hello julia please tell me which lens is better the tamron 70-180mm or the sony 70 200 f4?
These were so pretty !
Thank you!
It is sooo sharp! I loved these photos!!
Thank you! Yep all the edited photos I've applied my Lightroom Preset and have done skin retouching in Photoshop :)
@@juliatrotti Wow :O, thats a lot of work!
Loved those presets! My favorites were the grass ones!! Got to download that editing app for sure!!!
Thank you!! And I hope you enjoy using it :D
Absolutely do! Went ahead and bought some presets too girl you are doing an awesome job!!
It is nice to follow your channel, and see your improviment in all aspects of photography ❤️
Thank you so much!
Nice photoshoot in nature i am your big fan i always see your vedio like it you are awesome
Thank you so much 😀
I am getting this lens in the mail today, SO excited to try it out for the first time 🤙🏽
Yay have fun, I hope you enjoy using it!
Hi Julia, I saw something you had plugged into your camera...is that a power-bank or USB storage?
Great review. Why would tamron make a lens that goes to 180 instead of 200 like every other lens?
Those types of images are exactly why my preferred portrait lens is the Canon 70-200. Good lord I can't wait until my next shoot.
Added on my to buy lens list. 16-35 F4 55 1.8 ZA next would be 85 1.8 and then this one or this one first it will become available in our area.
the lens is very interesting at the longest focal lenght that offers
Cracking piece of glass this , cant wait to get my own :)
I recently found your chanel and in many video a can see a little boxe screwed in to the tripod socket with a cable connected to your Sony and I would like to know what is it
With the cable seemingly plug into the hdmi port but I cant find anything like that
"hey everyone"..
Nice work guys as usual.
Thank you!
so, that will be this tamron over the sony 70/200 2.8.
Hi Julia, I was debating between the canon m6markii and Sony a7 iii . I decided to go with the Sony . Since the good lenses according to reviews are the most $$$ Sony has. Unfortunately that’s out of budget. How is the tamron and canon All focus features? Do they perform just as it would with a Sony lense? I’ll probably be purchasing the kit with 24-70mm lense. I really liked how your images turned out on your behind the scenes using a 24-70mm kit lense.
Like I mentioned in the video, this Tamron lens worked flawlessly with the A7III! I had eye AF, continuous mode AF and a small flexible focus point on my model's face and it never skipped a beat. And yeah the Sony 28-70 kit lens is a really nice budget lens, I want to do another photoshoot with it soon :D
Thanks for the video. Would love to see some videos about vintage lenses. Both for photography and maybe about Dan using them for video.
Thank you! I've done a video where I did a photoshoot on my first ever camera, a Pentax K100D and used a vintage lens for that. Would be fun to get some on my A7III as well though!
I love the look of that LR preset. I might have to get that one.
Thank you! 😄😄
