@veholic1 4 года назад

Spot on Dustin! I am loving this lens so far, I love the versatility it offers, I am now selling my Rokinon 24mm 1.4 which I mostly only used on wide field astro. The performance of the 17-28 @ 2.8 is respectable out to the corners and compares with the Rokinon in sharpness and better on CA on stars. Now I have some zoom, altho limited, and auto focus to use in more areas of my photography.

@DustinAbbottTWI 4 года назад

Sounds about right to me.

@Spookyblack 5 лет назад

Hi Dustin, can you give me a little advise, that i have tamron 70 200 F2.8 HSM DX Macro (Non IS, and mark 1), i have shot with this lens but some time it is not righ focus althouth the camera is right focus, so should i sell it and buy canon 70 200 f2.8 non is or 70 200 f.28 IS mark 1 ?

@Ava-wu4qp 5 лет назад

Are you shooting on Canon or adapting to Sony? If shooting professionally or just high action, Abbott will recommend that you hold out for Tamron's offering like he suggested to me on Monday.

@efferoconsultingabprojects3500 5 лет назад

Can you please explain what engineered plastic is? Also, in many of your reviews you mention "micro contrast". What is this and how does it compare to normal contrast?

@DustinAbbottTWI 5 лет назад

Engineered plastics are high grade plastic composites that are often used in the shells of lenses. They are tough and durable and not to be confused with cheaper plastics. Microcontrast refers to the ability of a lens to not only resolve texture but also render distinct contrast at a 1:1 level (not just globally). I illustrate this in the middle of this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-La036dB-x_M.html

@gorbunovvv 5 лет назад

Great video, thank you so much! Unfortunately I won't be able to watch the entire series before purchasing this lens tomorrow. It seems like at 06:00 the focus is a bit off - don't you use the AF?

@Ava-wu4qp 5 лет назад

MF is still the golden standard for video work, despite the many improvements to AF. Focus breathing/slight changes to plane of focus can be very distracting.

@DustinAbbottTWI 5 лет назад

Because of the damage to my face at the moment I stayed more in profile for this video, which the AF system of the camera doesn't like as well as facing it.

Yes, for JPEGs, though a RAW correction profile hasn't shown up in Lightroom yet.

@hatchmedia4389 5 лет назад

@@DustinAbbottTWI are you shooting with mirrorless?

@Shadow81989 5 лет назад

Not a lens for me, as it's only for DSLM, but I have the very much comparable 17-35mm. I absolutely love the balance that Tamron strikes with these lenses - small, lightweight, weather sealed and still great optical performance and great aperture values. Alright, there's a little shorter zoom range, but if that saves about 50% of the size AND weight compared to similar lenses, I'm ok with it!

@DustinAbbottTWI 5 лет назад

They definitely seem to have made solid decisions about where to compromise in order to produce a balanced end result.

@matthewbeizer7241 4 года назад

Dustin, I have the voigtlander 15, f4.5, and the 21, 3.5. I am thinking of selling the voigt 21 and buying the tamron 17-28. Make sense? How does the IQ and rendering of the tammy compare to the voigtlanders?

@DustinAbbottTWI 4 года назад

While the Voigtlanders do have great color and contrast, the Tamron is surprisingly high end in those areas, so I think you'll be happy.

@andrewleejenkins 5 лет назад

Do you feel like it would be better to go with this or the Sony 16-35 f4 with OSS. I do a lot of video and wasn't sure if I'd miss the extra stabilization from the 16-35

@DustinAbbottTWI 5 лет назад

I haven't tested that lens, but, frankly, if your priority is getting smooth video footage, investing in a gimbal is going to give you far better results than any OSS I've ever seen. How important is F2.8 to you? The Tamron is super sharp and performs well, but it's got to meet your needs.

@andrewleejenkins 5 лет назад

@@DustinAbbottTWI with the type of video I do it's not really gimbal friendly unfortunately most of the time. I would pay crazy money for a wide Zoom that's also 2.8 lol. Sharpness isn't too big of an issue because delivery is typically a projector or phone screen after compression.

@DustinAbbottTWI 5 лет назад

Then I would go for the Tamron...as long as you have a camera body with IBIS.

@Zhorellski 4 года назад

Vs the Laowa 15mm f2 how does it perform at 17mm? Which is sharper?

How wide? Sigma has just announced a 14-24mm that could be interesting. It will be a fair bit larger than this lens.

Dustin, would you think Sigma 24-70 is much better than Tamron 24-75?

@greatpix 5 лет назад

Dustin, I notice a lack of reviews on Tokina lenses. Back in the day (1975-1997) when I worked in a pro camera store you had three choices for good to pro optics, the manufacturer's line, Tokina and Tamron. Sigma was decent, if you liked a green tinge to all your photos, but they were prone to early failures, and Rokinon/Samyang were a joke. (How times changed those three companies) Since 1970 I've owned Canon, Nikon and both Tokina and Tamron lenses with the Pro line of Tokina lenses being built a bit more like the manufacturer's lenses but even the cheaper lines had some good optics. Back when I was a journalist writing articles on photo gear Tamron was easier to get lenses to test, Tokina more difficult but I managed it eventually. Maybe you can get samples for testing through one of the big NYC camera stores like other reviewers?

@PKmode 5 лет назад

Times have changed. Sigma came a LONG way. The Sigmas had better primes for a while but Tokina had excellent zooms, particularly UWAs. They should have hit the Sony FE market harder and they might be reaping the benefits now.

@DustinAbbottTWI 5 лет назад

I've tried starting a dialogue with Tokina, but didn't get much of anywhere. I have a very full plate as it is, so if companies aren't accommodating, I feel like that is on them. I don't see many people doing Tokina reviews, so that's something they need to work on.

@bensisson7677 5 лет назад

It has happend to me to one time last week on the 17-28, I just turned off and on power on camera and it focused as normal. The focus icon in the bottom left only showed (( )) but no dot in the middle. It was in the middle of a sunny day and i tried again and again to press shutter and pointed the camera at different directions. It never happend on my 28-75.

@bensisson7677 5 лет назад

Sort of. So I’ll mount the lens and it will focus fine for a bit, then it will flash white and stop focusing. If I disconnect and reconnect it works fine but it’s pretty annoying

@TVe200 5 лет назад

When (if) I upgrade to full frame the Tamron 17-28 is very interresting. I don't need 2,8 but the Tamron is cheaper than the Sony 16-35 f/4. I am not so sure about Tamron 28-75, the Sony 24-105 f/4 is more versatile.

@DustinAbbottTWI 5 лет назад

There's two sides to the versatility argument: focal length vs aperture. Both provide versatility, but photographers tend to value one or the other.

@Lapatinib 5 лет назад

Wonder how it will do with the a7R4 when that will be available

@PKmode 5 лет назад

Well, it directly compares in resolving power to the 16-35GM and you can see Tony Northrup's images with the A7RIV and 16-35GM and he demonstrates superior sharpness compared to the A7RIII. I have the RIII and this new 17-28 and I can attest, it is very sharp from the limited use I've had with it.

@Lapatinib 5 лет назад

PKmode that helps Thank you

@njrtech 5 лет назад

PKmode it wouldn’t be sharper on A7riii vs. A7riv. The difference is more pixels in same area and glass ability to resolve more pixels within that same area.

@Lapatinib 5 лет назад

madmaxx72 I was wondering of the glass’s ability to resolve a higher resolution sensor like the 16-35 GM does

@DustinAbbottTWI 5 лет назад

I doubt this will be a problem. A sharp lens is a sharp lens, period. Sony's claims about the GM lenses resolving 100MP is mostly marketing hype.

Does this lens make a Batis 18mm a stupid buy? :)

@DustinAbbottTWI 5 лет назад

That's a reasonable question. Some of these new lenses are putting pressure on the Batis lenses in terms of price to performance ratio. Batis lenses often do have slightly nice microcontrast and color, but the nuance is small enough to probably be wasted on many buyers.

@Ava-wu4qp 5 лет назад

@DustinAbbottTWI 5 лет назад

They chose that route and to deliver great optical performance (and a small, light package) rather than a bigger zoom range.
