Great for enthusiasts and beginners who want something good from day 1 !!!
8 personnes sur 8 ont jugé cet avis utile. For those who want a powerful tele-zoom lens and are not yet ready to go for expensive "L" series this is a perfect choice!
***PROS:
-One of the best in class in terms of picture quality
-Very tough build, not water tight but extremely durable (almost feels like you can use it instead of hammer and it'll still make great photos);
-USD motor: almost instant focus;
-VC: great stabilization, I managed to handhold shutter speeds of 1/8 and 1/4 even!!! With absolutely no smear and blur on pictures!!!;
-Has full time manual focus override (in AF don't forget to half press shutter release before turning focus ring though!);
-Front element does bot move or rotate during focusing;
-Supplied with lens hood;
***CONS:
-Weight and size maybe... But well, it's a big boy... if you want this kind of telephoto you got to be ready to carry weights) AND! It's still a lot lighter than most "L" lenses;
***COMPARED TO CANON 70-300 IS USM:
If you're considering buying this lens you have most likely taken a look at the similar Canon model as I did;
So why did I go for Tamron instead?
Before ordering I went to a local photo store and took several test photos with different Aperture values with both lenses attached to my Rebel T2i. Viewing pictures I did not notice much difference in picture quality. And since both lenses are not cheap low-end models I don't think quality will be an issue. Hell both make great pictures!
So the choice was based on what do I like more about Tamron and here's what that is:
-Front element does not move or rotate during focusing. I was kinda surprised that on Canon's counterpart it does! Such an expensive lens with this front element twisting and turning like on a cheap 18-55... (What were Canon thinking about?);
-Tamron comes with a lens hood. Canon is just being nasty not supplying lens hoods... It is an expensive lens, and after you buy it, according to Canon,s philosophy you MUST spend some more on a lens hood...;
-The quality of materials and the feel of Tamron lens to the hand just felt much much better for some reason. It feels a lot tougher than Canon too.;
-Tamron is a lot cheaper!!! And for this difference I got myself a good Camera Bag and a polarizing filter.;
-VC on this lens is absolutely fantastic!!! I'm not a pro and have probably seen and held in my hands like five or so stabilized lenses in my life and this VC is the BEST I ever saw.;
-The one thing that I like more on Canon is that it had a zoom-lock button that does not allow the barrel to extend under it's own weight (when not in use). Tamron does not have it, BUT! Tamron's zoom ring is extremely tough, it rotates very steadily and slowly, there's no chance it will extend on it's own, even if you decide to go horse-back riding with a camera hanging on your neck.;
Hope you find this useful and choose this great lens as well. I certainly do not regret it a bit.
Cheers,

Great for a beginning speedliter!
+
Great built-quality, sturdiness and proper metal mount.
High-speed sync
Really fast recycling time
Can be used in wireless with most EOS bodies (all recent ones)
-
Head only turns 45 degrees to the right
Too small and fiddly +/- buttons (especially for owners of "sausage fingers")
Total: Four pros and two cons. Definitely good flash, unless you're on very very strict budget, in this case consider if you really need high-speed sync and fast recycle time. If "no" - go for 3rd party flash, if "yes" or "don't know" - go for this one!

Great 50mm!
6 personnes sur 6 ont jugé cet avis utile. WHY GET A 50mm LENS?
1: Bright aperture! These lenses have been out for a while and their simple construction allows to give as much as f1.4 in a small and light barrel and with a good value.
2: Size & weight! 50 is a lens that will never be a burden. Very lightweight and small it's a perfect city-walk lens.
3: Natural looking photos! This may be a personal thing, but to many many people 50mm focal distance just looks right. It is as though there is no camera between you and your subjects. This focal distance is great for it has no distortions of a wide-angle and it is not tele- enough, to through an object completely out of context and change perspective so much that it is sometimes hard to understand how far the background is from a subject (standard situation when you use a long tele-photo lens).
4: No zoom! Some people may not see it as an advantage, but that is before they try THIS lens. Having no opportunity to zoom in and out for framing is a great learning tool for it helps build up your own photo-vision. Helps you understand how composition works. And simply brings a lot more thrill into photography. Just try it for yourself and you'll see.
WHY GET THIS 50mm LENS?
Compared to Canon 50 F1.8
1. Build quality is much better, proper focus ring, metal mount and distance scale - all signs of a high-quality gear.
2. Ultrasonic motor! Very fast and precise focusing. This point is probably crucial for a lens with such a DoF that a 2 cm movement of your subject or yourself will be visible on your photos.
3. F1.4! This lens is two stops brighter and overall image quality is a lot better than on F1.8 counterpart.
Compared to Sigma F1.4
1. Size. Sigma does not enjoy one of the best things about 50mm lenses - that is size. It's pretty big and heavy AND has a 72mm filter thread. (How much are you ready to spend on filters??)
2. Even though Sigma produced a brand new lens, using latest optical technology for a slightly better image quality there are all these comments on forums and review-sites about Sigma's front- or back-focusing problems... This may not be such a great issue for mid-level dslr's, but for entry-levels, like Rebels where you can not adjust lens auto-focusing this is basically a kill.
3. Price. Sigma is a little more expensive. Of course the price difference is not such a big deal-breaker in this case, but put it together with size, weight and possibly inaccurate focus... Now there's something to consider
