I wasn't sure if I wanted a wide angle lens or not I had a play with a 10-20 canons APS-c lens on my old 50D some years ago liked it but didn't think I would want one in my kit bag. then I got a EOS R full frame body and was looking at their new lenses that are coming out for it RF mount and the cost ! so I looked at Sigma and Tamron to see what I could find and after youtube reviews a lot lol I thought I would give the SP 15 -30 F2.8 G2 a go. I field tested it last Sunday at a stately home and wow I put it on and only changed it for a macro 100 F2.8 for some close ups oh and a 70-200 F4 for 3 shots as I couldn't get close as I would have had to swim for it lol. I loved the lens from the first photo taken how much you can get in standing so close is great some shots ... MoreI wasn't sure if I wanted a wide angle lens or not I had a play with a 10-20 canons APS-c lens on my old 50D some years ago liked it but didn't think I would want one in my kit bag. then I got a EOS R full frame body and was looking at their new lenses that are coming out for it RF mount and the cost ! so I looked at Sigma and Tamron to see what I could find and after youtube reviews a lot lol I thought I would give the SP 15 -30 F2.8 G2 a go.

I have been contamplaiting between several lenses for my Canon cameras. I do a lot of shoots indoor and outdoor and have had a nice Tamron 70-200 mm f2/8. I was thinking of getting something to bridge the shorter distance and finally decided on Tamron 24-70mm f2.8 G2. What an amazing product it is. I dealt with Adorama before and knew that it is a solid and reputable seller with best prices, so decided to go with them. Got my lens and other items that were part of the package as advertised. The packaging was amazing, all was there as expected and of course, my new lens which I already tried for several different shots in different light and it performs absolutely fantastic. Of course the real test will be when I take it to the shoot, but I am already a very happy ... MoreI have been contamplaiting between several lenses for my Canon cameras.

I can honestly say I prefer this lens to the Nikon 14-24. The sharpness is honestly astonishing, and I love having the ability to zoom to 30 mm. I find myself less and less shooting at 15 mm so the small degree in wide angle is not so important. However, I find myself routinely shooting between 24 and 30 mm. So the trade off is more than justified. While you can't use screw on filters, I've turned to the NiSi filter system available for the Tamron 15-30 and it works perfectly well, though it is a bit cumbersome and awkward. Though you'd be forced to use a complicated filter system with any ultra-wide. I have found that this lens can catch some sun flares, but mostly only when shooting directly towards the sun on a bright day. I don't think there's a lens in ... MoreI can honestly say I prefer this lens to the Nikon 14-24. The sharpness is honestly astonishing, and I love having the ability to zoom to 30 mm.

Years ago I had a Nikon 24-70 2.8 lens and while it was good I was never really thrilled with it. I don't know if I had a bad copy or not but it just didn't perform as well as I expected on sharpness and given that I shoot a lot of events in low light I really wanted a lens with image stabilization (which at the time wasn't available from Nikon). So I replaced it with a Tamron 24-70 2.8 which didn't have as nice of a build quality (though it wasn't bad by any means), but it did have IS and it performed similarly to the Nikon on contrast and sharpness (focus was a little slower).Last month I finally bought the Tamron 24-70 2.8 G2. This lens is a big step up in both performance and build quality from the previous Tamron lens. It feels very solid, the auto focus is ... MoreYears ago I had a Nikon 24-70 2.8 lens and while it was good I was never really thrilled with it.

This lens is a big step up in both performance and build quality from the previous Tamron lens. It feels very solid, the auto focus is quick, the IS works very well, and it is sharp. I also like that with the addition of the Tap in console you can do micro focus adjustments at multiple focal lengths, for those times when the single adjustment that most DSLRs give isn't enough. I planned on purchasing that add-on but haven't yet as the single adjustment in my DSLR was enough to get this lens to be pretty sharp across all focal lengths, which I was not able to do with either my previous 24-70 lenses. It's not perfect but at anything smaller than about f4 it's very close.The only minor complaint I have is I wish the zoom and focus rings were in opposite locations. All of my other lenses (and from what I've seen most zoom lenses besides Sigma and Tamron) the focus ring is near the front of the lens and zoom ring near the mount.
I needed an ultra-wide zoom lens for landscape and city-scape photography. I did consider some of the Nikon options (zoom and prime lenses), but after much research, I concluded this Tamron was the best option and at a price that made the decision a no-brainer.If you are researching this lens, I recommend reviews on photographylife.com, cameralabs.com, and dxomark.com. I can confirm everything those reviews say about this lens is true.A couple of things to keep in mind. Tamron uses aspherical elements on their high-end lenses, and the physics of those elements can result in onion-shaped bokeh of some objects, which can be an issue for some individuals.The other thing is Tamron's quality control, which seems to be not as good as Nikon or Canon. Common QC issues ... MoreI needed an ultra-wide zoom lens for landscape and city-scape photography.

Common QC issues on Tamron lenses are decentering and front/back auto-focus. I recommend thorough testing for those issues, and exchange or return the lens if it proves problematic, which obviously implies buying the lens from a reputable seller, such as Best Buy.The downside of lenses of this type is the ability to accommodate filters (Nikon, Canon, Sigma, Samyang, and others have ultra-wide-angle lenses with the same deficiency). There are attachments that allow using drop-in filters, some of which are very expensive. I recommend the Haida filter 150 system as it is less expensive than the big brands (B+W, Lee, etc.) and is of equal quality. Haida also has screw-in filters for threaded lenses, which I also recommend them (I use them on my Tamron 24-70mm f/2.8) VC.This is really an excellent lens and I highly recommend it.
If you want a great value for a great lens, then this is it. Yes, the $2000+ Nikon lens with VR is slightly better... but only. If that small percentage (and I mean small that only a very tuned eye would even notice) is critical to what you do, then get it the more expensive one. If not, then this is superb. Its tact sharp, fast (term used for open Aperture that can be maintained throughout the focal length), quick to focus, nice colors, amazing glass, and is absolutely professional quality. Anyone who says otherwise must have bought a broken or badly used version, dropped theirs or mishandled it, or really do not understand photography. This is a tool and a very good one. It will not hammer itself, but it will work very well with you. Its beautiful and solid. It is ... MoreIf you want a great value for a great lens, then this is it.

It is not a light lens, so if that is your number 1 priority, then get a much cheaper and plastic lens with a much less open aperture. I think your be very happy with this and I love it on my D7500.
Instead of splurging right away for a $1,300 lens, I tried an $80 rental as a test drive. I was pleasantly surprised that the lens not only arrived in its own small padded 'suitcase,' but came two days early, extending my rental! Returning it was easy. I will definitely use Lensrentals again! Thank you!
Ordered this lens from B&H a week ago to pair with my D850. As far as I can tell everything is in good working order. No noticeable decentering, AF issues that I can detect, at-least not with my copy. Lens output together with D850 provides very good center and mid-frame sharpness rolling off a bit at extreme edges. F/4 to f/8 probably optimal aperture range, but still very decent at f/2.8. Color, contrast, general rendering appears more than satisfactory. Flare suppression appears to be very good and ghosts are generally small and easily cleaned up in Lightroom. Lens distortion also appears to be well managed for an ultra wide zoom. VC is effective, but is quite audible in producing a constant buzzing, hum when on when AF-ON and/or shutter release are activated. ... MoreOrdered this lens from B&H a week ago to pair with my D850.

Lens distortion also appears to be well managed for an ultra wide zoom. VC is effective, but is quite audible in producing a constant buzzing, hum when on when AF-ON and/or shutter release are activated. Not anywhere near as loud as a shutter release for example, but quite noticeable. I knew lens would be a beast before buying it, but was still taken aback by how stout and meaty it actually is in the flesh. This doesn’t bother me as a like the overall feel together with the D850 and I personally don’t have issues with lugging heavy gear on hikes, etc. Build quality and feel are excellent. For me the 15-30 G2 feels more substantial and solid that the sister 24-70 G2 lens. This is my first full frame UWA zoom (only used DX format UWA lenses before now) and partly because I don’t really have anything to directly compare to and partly because of the humming VC I have rated 4 stars. Two desert scenes attached below. One with Saguaro cactus in right foreground was shot at 15mm, 1/200th, f/8, ISO64 and one with yellow bush in right, lower foreground shot at 15mm, 1/125th, f11.
Awesome lens !!! Solid construction, well made,sharp optics. Zoom range of 15mm to 30mm is perfect for landscapes, architecture, scenery, and more. Built-in Vibration Compensation works flawlessly and is great for hand held shooting in low light conditions. Auto-focus is fast and accurate, surprisingly even in darker lighting.NiSi S-5 150mm filter system attaches securely to the hood and allows use of a polarizer and other 150mm wide filters. I use Wine Country graduated neutral density, 150mm x 170mm, for darkening skys. some vignetting at 15mm with polarizer, goes away around 16mm, can also be corrected in post.Overall a great lens, plus you get a workout from carrying it around !
I bought this lens 3 weeks ago. I was very apprehensive at first as this is the first time a bought a third party lens. I dropped my Nikon 14-24 while on a job assignment. It really wasnt worth the cost to repair it so I decided to buy a new lens. I only consider another 14-24 or this lens. I have finally use it enough to make some fair assessments of this lens. First thing I noticed and what really stands out about this lens is the color saturation and contrast. Definitely more noticeable and better quality than my old 14-24. The vibration reduction works great. I shoot mainly landscape and although I always use a tripod there are always moments on a shoot that it nice to take the lens off the tripod to take another photo without readjusting my tripod, especially ... MoreI bought this lens 3 weeks ago.

The vibration reduction works great. I shoot mainly landscape and although I always use a tripod there are always moments on a shoot that it nice to take the lens off the tripod to take another photo without readjusting my tripod, especially when the sun is changing so fast. I was concerned about losing that 1degree field of view but I usually find myself shooting between 16 -21 mm. So, I can live without it. Another concern I had was the auto focus, although I find it faster and better than my 14-24 it is still not perfect. It can be slow and hunt in low light and at times could not lock in during early morning hours. I have also found some chromatic aberration while processing in some of the photos but it corrected easily in LR. One thing that I dont care for and still struggling with is the location of the focus and zoom ring. They are in reverse from my Nikon lens. Overall, I am happy with this purchase. I think it is a well made lens and an improvement optically over the 14-24. The picture quality is amazing and in some regards sharper than my old lens. I hope Nikon decides to make an updated version of the 14-24 as I still hold that lens in high regards. However, in the mean time until they do I believe this Tamron 15-30 2g is the better option of the 2!
