Description

The new SP70-200mm F/2. 8 G2 (Model A025) telephoto lens reimagines the highly acclaimed Model A009 with enhanced optical performance, improved VC (Vibration Compensation), faster AF speed and accuracy, and shortened MOD (Minimum Object Distance) for greater flexibility. What’s more, compatibility with Tamron tele converters provides additional focal length. In keeping with the SP series’ innovative technology, the lens is designed to be durable, flexible and resilient enough to rise to any occasion. Every aspect of the SP 70-200mm F/2. 8 G2 (Model A025) zoom has been improved, providing high image quality and enhanced bokeh throughout. Optical design features include XLD (extra Low Dispersion) and LD (Low Dispersion) glass to eliminate chromatic aberrations across the entire zoom range, ensuring optimum resolution― even at the edges. band Coating designed exclusively for this new zoom offers superior anti- reflection properties, greatly minimizing flare and ghosting. And refined bokeh provides spectacular background effects from nearly any angle. Tamron’s best-in-class VC image stabilization performance is equivalent to 5 stops, according to CIPA standards. Plus, this lens offers a choice of three VC modes, including one exclusively for panning. Now you can match the VC mode to your shooting conditions and enjoy sharp, jitter-free handheld shooting―even in low light. Among 70-200mm F/2. 8 interchangeable lenses for full-frame DSLR cameras.

    • Crisp Photos
Style: Lens Only
I use this at all my weddings and it’s my favorite lense. All the photos are so crisp and clear. It’s a heavy lense but it’s worth it to me for the quality and zoom. Great especially for wedding ceremonies.

I waited a couple weeks to test this lens out. I use a Canon adapter to use this lens on my R series cameras. I could not be happier! I’m a pro photographer and journalist, so I needed an f/2.8 that wouldn’t break the bank. This IS it. The autofocus is accurate and the tracking is the same as my branded lenses. See pics from this lens on my R7 & R5 cameras. As a bonus, it’s internal zoom, relatively light, and can be used for any type of activities. Fast or slow movements are a breeze with the correct settings on your camera. ... show more

    • A camera bag staple
Style: Lens Only
Excellent lens! I purchased this primarily for sports photography but also some everyday use. It's extremely versatile and performs exceptionally well. It's heavier than my other lenses (that are smaller) which is understandable - the dovetail mount makes it easy to use with a monopod or tripod to overcome the added weight. Zoom range is great for needing for diverse use. Overall very impressed and would say value for money is on point. I was nervous to order online but the packaging was the best I've experienced and everything came in perfect condition. Tamron also had an easy process of registering the product for the warranty. ... show more

    • Possibly sharper than my 100-400 II

Review Image by Mark Winterstein Mark Winterstein
I was reading some reviews of this lens, and a couple people were throwing around the term tack sharp. I have the G2 Version of Tamron's 150-600, and it's definitely not as sharp as my Canon 100-400 II, so I didn't necessarily place much faith in the claims of the reviews. I was curious, though, so I figured I could return it if I wasn't satisfied. Well, I have to give Tamron credit for this lens. It's very sharp, approaching the sharpness of my Pentax K-70 and new 55-300 combo (the K-70 has no low-pass filter, and those two make for the sharpest setup I've ever used). The depth of field is a blessing and a curse, being razor thin at these focal lengths, so I need to practice that some more, but that's no fault of the lens. It's pretty heavy, close to that of the 100-400, so that will take some acclimation. Autofocus is very fast and virtually silent, although perhaps not *quite* as fast as the Canon lens. The manual override is a very nice feature, and the focus ring is buttery smooth. The zoom ring is not quite as nice, but still works fine. I have a 7D Mark II, and I figured that because of its low-pass filter, and other factors, I just resigned myself to its less than staggeringly sharp output. But with this lens, I've been proven wrong, and I know now that the 7D is capable of some very sharp images, indeed. I haven't tried either version of Canon's 70-200, and I only tried Sigma's version briefly (it seemed pretty sharp, though), but if you're looking for a 70-200, and your budget won't quite allow for L glass, the Tamron is a killer alternative. ... show more

    • Wonderful lens... with two quirks
Style: Lens Only
Excellent lens as far as image quality and I'll start by saying I love this lens, but two things to watch out for. First, my version of the lens needed A LOT of micro adjustment to focus on the right spot, which I read was common with this lens. If you aren't familiar with the process, read up on microadjustment and do it with this lens to get the most out of it. The lens was focusing almost 2" in front of where it was supposed to consistanly before the adjustment. I second-shot a whole wedding like this and was initially disappointed with the lens. I did the adjustment and it has been amazing ever since, made a huge difference. This lens by far needed more adjustment than any of my other lenses. Second issue is that the MF/AF and VC buttons are in a horrible location and not recessed enough if you use a sling strap, so I promise that you will repeatedly accidentally switch it to MF or turn VC off when you don't want to, and will miss an occasional shot because it isn't autofocusing when you expect it to. Again, I read this was a problem and can confirm that it is. All things considered, this is a wonderful lens, focuses fast, very sharp after the micro adjustment, and is my new workhorse lens. As annoying as the button issue is, it is still well worth the savings from the Canon version of this lens, highly recommend this lens. ... show more

good lens. areas to be improved: 1. zoom ring is tight. It could have been much smoother. 2. The lens hood is of very poor quality. Also it fits poorly on the lens. Either provide a good quality lens hood or don't give at all. 3. Auto focus is fast but needs to be a lot more faster to compete canon USM Overall i am satisfied but with these improvements this would be a clear winner ... show more
