Tamron 17-28mm f/2.8 Di III RXD para Sony Mirrorless Full Frame/APS-C E Mount, Negro (AFA046S700)

Exactly as described and a great price and fast shipping 👍

I have been using this lens for a couple of years now with my Sony A7IV. I haven't had any issues. The build quality feels solid. The clarity is on par for what you would expect for the cost of the lens, which I think is decently sharp. I am a professional real estate photographer and this lens is my workhorse. It works great for capturing an entire room, though I do wish I would have gone with a 14mm for a bit more versatility.

This lens and the Tamron 50-400 are the only two lenses I bring on my landscape photography trips. They share the same filter size. I got a magnetic CPL filter and swapping it between the two lenses only takes a few seconds.I have used it on a bunch photo projects and the images are fantastic from f2.8 onward. I shoot most of my landscapes between f8 and f11. However, I had a specific project that called for all the images to have very shallow depth of filed. I used this lens at f2.8 and never questioned the quality. The lens delivered with flying colors.I do not do weddings anymore but was asked to do one a few months ago. I brought this lens and my Tamron 28-75 G2 and my 70-180 G1. The lenses performed flawlessly and I got fantastic images out of all three.

This makes my second Tamron lens for my Sony A7II. I bought the 70-300 first and loved it so much I bought the 17-28 next to get wider. It's a fantastic fast lens that I've been having a blast to use. I did a fair share of research into wide angle zoom lenses and was on the fence about this only going up to 28mm but honestly I'm ok with it now that I've started using it. I was playing around with this lens yesterday trying to snap photos of my dog running around the park and I can tell you that the autofocus is fast, the images are clear and going to f2. 8 makes this a great lens for me

I wanted a wide zoom for my a7c. The decision between the Tamron, sigma, and sony lens really didn't come to price for me. I wanted something as compact as possible. Frankly I was a bit worried if I'd not like the Tamron b/c I don't like cheap feeling lightweight gears. But I took the plunge and have no regrets. I use this lens for video, and I always use autofocus so the lack of the M/AF switch on the lens is not a factor for me. The lens is light, but does not feel cheap, unless you have it right next to the new Sony 12-24. I was really torn b/c I like the sony so much! But I ended up with the Tamron b/c it's 1/2 the weight and for my video purposes, I can't tell a difference in the picture quality. Perhaps to very picky photographers you can tell the difference. But I bought the a7c …

I agree with the some of the other reviews that say this lens a bit overrated. I say that because, while it gets the wide angle job done quite well, its a bit handicapped by its short zoom range and somewhat odd image quality. I will say the image quality is not bad at all but it is also not great. The images this lens are a bit uninspired in my opinion. It can be a pretty sharp lens when used correctly but it suffers from extreme vignetting at most apertures and somewhat oddly shaped distortion.Both of these deficiencies can be corrected in software but the amount of vignette and distortion correction required was a bit too much for my standards.At the end of the day this is another modern zoom that is seemingly more of an engineering exercise than an attempt to make a tool that can …

I'm no expert, but this lens takes amazingly sharp images. The auto focus is quick, and accurate.The lens has quite an odd focal range, but it works for my wide angle needs. It has a basic design; there are no buttons, or switches on this lens, just a focus ring.So far I've used it for landscape, seascape/sunsets, and real estate photography. It suites my needs very well. I can't wait to do some astro, aurora borealis, and lightning shots with this thing.I'm happy with this purchase, I plan to use this lens for years to come, so the 6 year warranty is nice plus.

For the price you cannot beat this lens. Yes, you're sacrificing 1mm on the wide end and 7mm on the long end compared to something like Sony's 16-35 f/2.8 GM, but at $899 there is nothing close that matches this Tamron 17-28 f/2.8. I'm not a technical photographer, and while I care about vignetting and distortion, it's not something I look at closely because it's easily correctable in Lightroom. With that being said, I really don't notice any extreme faults. Focus is incredibly fast, and at f/8 and beyond you're gonna get a sharp image across the frame. Bokeh at f/2.8, while not necessarily a popular necessity for a wide zoom, is very nice looking (see the first image I've included). Unless you absolutely need OIS or those extra mm on either end, this is the lens for you. At $1300 cheaper
