Tamron XR-Di 28-75mm 2.8

If you are in the market for a short zoom the Tamron XR-Di 28-75mm 2.8 in Nikon, Canon, Minolta and Pentax is a sure way to go and at a real bargain at a street price of $499

I like this lens and it is anything short of amazing. It is light weight, easy to use and its performance compares to other lenses in its category at three times the price!

Maybe as an amateur or aspiring photographer most lenses you choose or are provided to you with the camera kit cannot hold a constant aperture throughout their zoom. Some lenses vary as much as 2 focal lengths in their zoom range. Not so with the Tamron XR-Di 28-75mm 2.8. I’m really surprised at how sharp this lens is and how fast it focuses. Don’t take my word for it. Go to your local Tamron dealer and do some test shots in the store. You will be simply amazed!

The Tamron isn’t built for the daily grind of the news reporter, but is definitely a lens of choice for the typical wedding/commercial photographer. It will definitely be a lens I keep in my gear bag!
