The German Magazine fotomagazin.de tested the new Tamron 17-28mm f/2.8. This is what they think:
- It has a tight zoom ring
- lens hood is made of plastic
- Autofocus works very quick
- The lens is sharp even wide open
- Some wavy distortion at 17mm and pincushion distortion at 28mm. But it’s easy to correct.
- Some vignetting at 17mm aperture which is gone at 28mm
Price of the lens is 999 Euro….not mentioned by the magazin…but I know it :)
The lens is listed with no pricing at BHphoto, FocusCamera and Adorama.
