  Excellent alternative for Canon L By PD on October 08, 2013
Verified Purchase Review submitted for Tamron SP 24-70mm f2.8 Di VC USD Lens for Canon EOS Mount (AFA007C-700) (TMSP2470F28DIEOS) Pros: Excellent Build Quality, Very sharp, F28 Constant Aperature, Constant F28 Aperature Cons: Tad Slow To Focus Other Comments: I recently bought a Canon 6d and got the 24-105 F4 L lens with it. After using it for a few weeks, decided that I needed the f2.8. Sold the Canon lens online and bought the Tamron. Was concerned about quality issues but mine turned out to be an excellent copy. Love it. I have been playing it ever since I got it and have gotten some gorgeous pics with it. Well constructed, decently fast and very sharp. Perfect walk around lens. Great for indoor use, the image stabilization coupled with F2.8 works really well for videos especially in low light. This one is a keeper.

  Definitely a winner! By DocMo on July 28, 2013
Verified Purchase Review submitted for Tamron SP 24-70mm f2.8 Di VC USD Lens for Canon EOS Mount (AFA007C-700) (TMSP2470F28DIEOS) Pros: Wonderful color, Tack sharp, Nice Solid Build Cons: Zoom ring a little stiff Other Comments: This Tamron lens is more than suitable as an alternative to Canon's flagship 24-70 f/2.8 II. The lens is solid, well built, tack sharp, and has the benefit of IS! Images produced have wonderful color and clarity. Focusing is generally not an issue - I use center point focus - and even at 2.8 my images have come out clear and sharp. Compared to the Canon lens, I don't see any reason not to get this Tamron lens! Yes, I recommend this product Was this review helpful?     |     Report this review

  Tremendous Bang for Your Money By Photo Guy on June 28, 2013
Verified Purchase Review submitted for Tamron SP 24-70mm f2.8 Di VC USD Nikon Mount (AFA007N-700) - OPEN BOX (TMSP2470F28DINAOB) Pros: Very Sharp Focus, Easy to carry, Quiet, Very Quick Focus Cons: none Other Comments: I read all of the reviews about this lens that I could find and I compared the lens to the Nikon equivalent. The Tamron lens provides tremendous bang for the buck at 2/3 the cost, even more bang if you buy Nikon refurbished, as I did. This lens should satisfy even the most discerning user, unless Nikon glass is the only kind you prefer to use. Yes, I recommend this product Was this review helpful?     |     Report this review

  A lot of hype but marginal results By Newrider on November 16, 2012
Verified Purchase Review submitted for Tamron SP 24-70mm f2.8 Di VC USD Lens for Canon EOS Mount (AFA007C-700) (TMSP2470F28DIEOS) Pros: Solid feel, Nice build Cons: Heavy, Not Sharp At Full Open, Slow AF Other Comments: I bought this for shooting indoor equestrian events with my Canon 60D. Lighting is usually nominal at best. In low light the lens tends to hunt more than my Canon 85mm 1.8 and the AF isn't fast enough to keep up with moving subjects. At full aperature the results were not sharp. The lens was sharp at F8 in full sunshine but I have less expensive lenses that produce similar results. I expected better results from a $1000.00 plus lens. Was this review helpful?     |     Report this review

  Great Lens By MystRacing on September 10, 2012
Verified Purchase Review submitted for Tamron SP 24-70mm f2.8 Di VC USD Lens for Canon EOS Mount (AFA007C-700) (TMSP2470F28DIEOS) Pros: Quiet, Sharp images, Fast autofocus, Build Quality Cons: Other Comments: This is a great lens. It's sharper than both my 24-105 F4L and 17-40 F4L Canon lenses at the same focal lengths. Ultrasonic Autofocus is fast and quiet. With the F2.8 it's great in low lighting. At over a grand less than the comparable (and at this point unavailable) cannon 24-70 F2.8 it's a steal. It's a big lense, if you're used to kit type lenses. It's pretty close to the same size as the 24-105 F4L Canon. I didn't put that in as a con because that is typical of high end lenses. I was a little worried about spending this much on a off brand lens but did it anyway and am glad I did. It has the same dust seal as my L series lenses. Other than missing the red line around the front I like it every bit as much as my Canon lenses. Yes, I recommend this product Was this review helpful?     |     Report this review
