Tamron 17-50 VC Small Review

October 16th, 2009

This is not a Photoshop article but I think that it’s still good to share some photographic equipment with you that I have experience with. Lens is one of the most important parts of photographic gear so I wish this article with help you would help you find a good lens.

When I heard about new lens from Tamron, Tamron 17-50

F2.8 VC, I thought that this version must have some improvement over the current version, Tamron 17-50 F2.8 which I often use for most of my shots. My friend, Kun, and I went to camera shop in Bangkok, named AV camera, had chance to test new lens from Tamron, Tamron 17-50 F2.8 VC. Initially, I would like to test this lens with Canon EOS 400D for Canon mount but the Canon version is not available yet so I use my friend camera, Nikon D300, instead.
