The Tamrons 17-50 F2.8 Lens

Last week I went to Genting with my family. Took few pics with my newly bought Tamron lens. Here are some of the results:

• Shutter Speed 1/100 sec

• Lens Aperture : F2.8

• Focal Length: 50mm

• ISO : 200

• Exposure Compensation: +0.7 step

• Mode: Aperture Priority

It produces pretty sharp pictures and definitely a plus for low light situations like wedding, parties, and etc. This Tamron 17-50 has a big aperture of F2.8 and it has a fast focusing as well. There is only one downside which I like to comment, the sound of the focus is quite loud and it might be annoying to some people. However, I still consider it as acceptable because of the pricing range. A newly Tamron 17-50 F2.8 lens will cost you from any range of Rm 1600- RM 1700. That is more than half of a Canon 17-55 F2.8 IS lens which costs around RM 4000+. If you want to try out a big aperture lens, why not try a Tamron 17-50 F2.8 lens. It will definitely give you a kick and gives you a lot benefits as well. As for the overall review, the Tamron is definitely value for money for its price range and it gives you the flexibility during low light situations with fast focusing as well.
