Pros:
|
Not to heavy - very sharp at all focal lengths and corner to corner at all focal lengths
|
|
Cons:
|
Very difficult to find the critical focus to attain the potential of the lens
|
|
I wanted a prime 45mm for use on the Sony a-900 and was unable to find one .
I checked the SLR GEAR lens tests for the Tamron 28-75 mm zoom and I was very impressed .
I also discovered that the Tamron 28-75 mm f2.8 crosses the zero distortion very near to it's 45mm setting , so I decided to Buy the lens .
The lens will focus , probably as well as any when using the autofocus mode .
My problem is that I want very exact focus near the end of the format , and this does not offer any focus sensor so far fron the center of the frame .
For a zoom lens I believe this lens is performing as well or even with more IQ than most prime lenses , even wide open it amazes .

Pros:
|
Weight, Size, Aperture 2.8, Wide Angle on FF
|
|
Cons:
|
Price, Cheap distance scale
|
|
I bought this together with my Alpha 850. Sure its not the quality of the Zeiss 24-70 neither it has the wide angle of 24mm. It is a good standard zoom. I had the Minolta 28-75 on my A300. The 28mm were not appropriate on APS-C. On FF this is a complete different story.
The price is insane, like lot of the Sony lenses.
