The Tamron 2-2.8/35-150 mm Di III VXD shows very good optical performance when slightly stopped down.

The combination of a large zoom range, which covers the most important settings from slightly wide-angle to telephoto, and the high speed is attractive. This makes the lens an all-rounder for both holiday photography and sophisticated portraits.

The imaging performance is very good, the autofocus works quickly and precisely. The feel is great in practice. Thanks to the ribbing, focus and zoom adjustments can be made easily. We have few complaints about the Tamron lens. The only thing we would have liked to see is an integrated image stabiliser...

The interesting alternative to the 24 to 70 millimetre standard convinces with excellent workmanship and very good image quality. The high speed requires a bulky body and the complex construction of 21 lenses a high weight. In short: you get a lot of lens for the money.

Especially for portrait photographers, the fast Tamron 2-2.8/35-150 mm Di III VXD is worth considering.
