Tamron 17-70mm F2.8 Review + Sony 16-55mm F2.8 G Comparison
In this video I check out the Tamron 17-70mm F2.8 APSC zoom lens on my A6100 and I compare it to the Sony 16-55mm F2.8 G.
You can buy the Tamron here: https://geni.us/ZdPBq8
A BRIEF Q&A:
(1) IS IT BETTER THAN THE SONY 16-55mm? In some ways, yes. It is just as sharp and offers image stabilization.
(2) IS IT BETTER THAN THE SONY 18-135mm? Yes.
(3) IS IT BETTER THAN THE SONY 18-105mm G? Yes.
(4) IS IT BETTER THAN THE ZEISS 16-70mm F4? Duh. The Zeiss is garbage.
(5) IS IT BETTER THAN THE SIGMA TRIO? For convenience, yes. But I personally wont be selling my Sigmas for this lens. F1.4 is amazing.
(6) SHOULD I BUY IT? If you want a great lens that covers 98% of what most people shoot, that is sharp, has excellent autofocus, built great, and has a nice warranty, YES.
(7) SHOULD I SELL MY __________ LENS TO BUY THIS LENS? Probably. this is one of the sharpest zoom lenses I've tested, and for $799, its a bit of a bargain.
