I'm new to the hobby and working at getting to the point to do this on the side of my regular job. This is a great lens and very well built. Using it on a Canon 750D until i decide on a new camera.

I first used this lens for an event.i was very pleased with its performance. Used for a variety of shots from close ups to groups. Did have a couple of occasions when the AF failed and i got soft portraits for no known reason. Four missed shots from 200 shots is good. I would recommend this lens.

I've been wanting to get into food photography and needed a lens that could do the job. I highly recommend this lens for anyone that is starting out! It's super convenient.

This was a very expensive lens I bought for a new Cannon 6D MKII. I waited to do a review until I used it for a while. After several months, I came to the conclusion it was not worth carrying in the field bag. I have a 10 year old "plastic" Cannon lens that takes better photos than this heavy glass lens. Very disappointed. When I first got it and first used it I left the image vibration switch "on" when I turned the camera off, like I have done for years with all my Cannon lenses. Big mistake, this lens runs the camera battery down over night if you leave the lens switch in the on position even with the camera off. ???? it put me in a bind several times before I figured out what was draining my battery. Now I never use the Vibration switch so I can't forget to turn it off. I wanted something between the two Cannon macros I have and the longer Cannon telephoto lens I have. I will keep looking. This lens may be good for portraits, but not for nature photography.

I'm using this lens with my Nikon D810 and am very happy with the quality and ease when working in mixed lighting. I recently worked a venue that was fast moving from indoor to out, no problem at keeping up and staying sharp.

I'm upgrading from 8 yrs of shooting DX. While bigger and so is my D750 from my D7000 and 17-50mm, they look too much alike! I had no regrets buying the 17-50mm and I doubt I'll have any here. To date the Tamron 70-200 G2 doesn't leave the D750. But I also acquired a D800, which is also new to me. he combination is very satisfactory. I use it with a flash I am also getting use to. Getting the light right has been a bigger issue than the camera and lens. I wish I had the G2, but at the discount of the older model I couldn't afford to pass this lens up. Optically supposed to be the same. It is too early to write a review. But wanted a chance to win a prize.

what a great all around lens for events, family and friends. Have used the 17-50 for years and moved up to a full frame. Don't waste time thinking about it this is a must have lens!!

Wonderful standard/normal zoom for Canon FF bodies. This replaces my EF 28-80mm, f2.8-f4L USM and the Tamron is just as sharp in the center as the Canon "L" lens, while much sharper at the edges and corners. Makes a wonderful wedding/event lens, as well as a general purpose zoom. Also works on Canon crop 1.6x/APS-C and 1.3x/APS-H bodies, just not quite as wide FOV as the FF bodies. A fantastic value compared to Canon and Sigma equivalents.

I find this lens will focus quickly and accurately. On top of that as and added bonus it is very quiet. It is a little heavy for my normal work however the VC helps tremendously. I use this on my Nikon D-810 and D-700. I've been very pleased with the color and sharpness.

I was disappointed that one of the first things out of the box was a slip of paper advising me that the lens doesn't utilize Sony's AF-D (Hybrid Phase AF). That's a significant feature on several Sony bodies. It should advise of that shortcoming on the lens' specs on this site and/or on Tamron's. I will say that my critical testing proved the lens is very sharp and has a lot of nice optical qualities, and it has a 6 year warranty. Sony? Sigma? Are you listening? But the auto focus limitation is a big shortcoming. The lens also fails to show up in the a99II EXIF data. It shows the focal length and aperture used, but does not identify the lens. Fortunately I bought the lens from Adorama and was able to return the lens immediately for a full refund and I purchased the Sony 24-70mm f/2.8 Vario-Sonnar T Zeiss ZA SSM II instead. I want to take full advantage of what that camera can do. Thanks Adorama!

I have been shooting for 6 months. So far, I have been shooting wildlife and landscape using kit lense 18-55mm.... This is much better... Love it.

This Tamron 24-70mm f2.8 is a phenomenal lens, fast & smooth zoom. Clear and shape images for both indoor and outdoor. Good lens for low light situation. Strongly recommended!

I've had this lens for about 2 weeks now and I wanted to hold off writing a review until I have shot with it enough to know how good this lens is. I was skeptical at first buying anything but a Nikon lens, but thought I would give it a try. I can tell you that 2 weeks in and a wedding done, that I am impressed with the performance of this lens. It's sharp, I didn't have a burred photo in 2000 images and my images look fantastic. I was worried about another review I had seen that the lens had to hunt for it's subject too long. I didn't find this to be the case at all. I highly recommend this lens.

Amazing value! Lens is SHARP. I dropped a star because it does “bump” when VC is engaged, but I’m still testing it. Quality is very good - and rates higher than the Nikon version in sharpness. I never believed that third party lenses could be better.

I have had this lens for a couple of weeks so obviously not able to comment on long term quality. The images I have captured with it have been crisp and the bokeh at wide apertures is beautiful. It is heavy but easily manageable as a walking around lens. Focus seems fast enough for my purposes. Close focus is very good.

I have been shooting with this lens for over a week. I have shot about 8 basketball games. The clarity and images are awesome. I now am only carrying this lens instead of all my lens to every game. I can't stop shooting with it. My new LOVE!!
