During the course of several days, I grew to love the Tamron SP 15-30mm f/2.8 Di FC USD more and more. What I soon realized is that my 24-70mm f/2.8 optic may be a nice, all-around glass, but it pales in comparison when it comes to shooting architecture a...
Fast wide-angle zoom lenses have become increasingly popular in recent times, with the proliferation of lower-priced 'full frame' DSLR cameras. With the SP 15-30mm f/2.8 Di VC USD lens, Tamron has issued a serious challenge to Canon and Nikon and provided...

Buildquality and finish, Constant f/2.8 aperture, Optical stabilization, USD motor, Sharpness between f/8 and f/11, Little chromatic aberration
Size and weight, Lack of uniformity at wide angle between the center and edges, Slight vignetting, Visible distortion
All in all, this 15-30mm f/2.8 follows in the footsteps of its two big brothers. It's a very good zoom lens, providing all-round performance and good picture quality in most set-ups. This lens will be great for landscape photographers and photojournalists...

Tamron a réussi son pari : concurrencer Canon et Nikon sur le segment des grands angles pros pour boîtiers plein format. Aussi bien construit que ses concurrents, le 15-30 mm offre une qualité d'image proche, un autofocus aussi efficace mais il apporte su...

Qualité de construction et de finition, Ouverture f/2.8 constante, Stabilisation optique, Motorisation USD, Qualité du piqué de f/8 à f/11, Faibles aberrations chromatiques
Poids et encombrement importants, Défauts d'homogénéité aux plus grandes ouvertures entre le centre et les bords des images, Léger vignettage, Distorsions visibles
Au final, ce 15-30mm f/2.8 est dans la continuité de ses deux grands frères. C'est un très bon zoom, polyvalent et qui procure une bonne qualité d'image dans la majorité des configurations. Cet objectif fera le bonheur des amateurs de paysages et de repor...
