Tamron AF 28-105/2.8

[Bille]

Does anyone know a little more about this Tamron? It´s a constant f2.8 aperture zoom with a large 82mm front diameter. From what I know it was discontinued before everyone went digital.

A nice review is up here:

Considering getting one for my Sony AF.

According to Dyxum this lens was produced until 2003. According to the user reviews it is a decent lens, but not that good at f/2.8 - it seems a Canon or Sigma 24-105/4 would be just as good. Here are some sample pictures (not many).

Thanks, I have ordered one and will see how it performs. It seems to have its own signature, unlike most modern day zooms (flat, sharp, faultless).

With a little searching you can find it (or the 35-105) quite cheap - enjoy!
