Video reviews

Macro lens from Tamron is one of the most affordable options among its kind. But this does not mean that it is inferior to the original glasses from alpha brands — in many ways it is on a par with them, and in some ways even better.

Bright Features

The lens has a whole galaxy of bright features in its arsenal: dust and water protection, effective stabilizer, internal focus, 9-blade aperture, fast and silent autofocus. But let's talk about everything in order.

stub

Structurally, the 90mm lens consists of 14 elements in 11 groups. In addition to a complex lens system, it was possible to place an effective image stabilizer in the body, which is capable of compensating up to 4 exposure steps. When shooting at the smallest possible focus distance, it will be useful for achieving a shallow depth of field (covering up to f / 8-f / 16) without compromising quality, i.e. without exaggerating the ISO values.

autofocus

And in the case there was a place for a fast and quiet drive of the autofocus system. It can work in three modes: normal, from 50 cm to infinity (the fastest focus for shooting everyday scenes) and from 30 cm to 50 cm (true macro with slow autofocus). A separate analogue switch is provided to switch between modes. When focus, all elements move inside the lens, which is why it lacks the so-called trunk.

sharpness

The sharpness of the lens across the entire field of the frame was rated "Excellent" at apertures from f / 5.6 to f / 8(test data taken from photozone.de). In the centre of the frame, sharpness is very high even at the widest aperture (f / 2.8). In this case, parasitic effects such as vignetting or chromatic aberrations practically do not appear.

Top level

Tamron has managed to make a really top lens with a very competitive price tag. And in February 2016, her successor saw the light in the face, which received a completely updated design and a redesigned optical design. Given the compatibility of the lens with all major mounts, it becomes a very attractive option to purchase.
