Versatile and Useful: A Review of the Tamron 35-150mm f/2.8-4 Di VC OSD Lens

A walkaround lens with a decent zoom range, reasonable aperture, good image quality, and an affordable price is something of a unicorn for a lot of photographers. The Tamron 35-150mm f/2.8-4 Di VC OSD lens seems to check all those boxes, making it one of the most intriguing lenses I have seen in a few years. This excellent video review takes a look at the lens and what you can expect from it in practice. 

Coming to you from Julia Trotti, this excellent video review takes a look at the Tamron 35-150mm f/2.8-4 Di VC OSD lens. Along with a super useful focal length range and reasonable maximum aperture range, the 35-150mm f/2.8-4 comes with Three Low Dispersion elements to reduce chromatic aberrations and improve clarity, three hybrid aspherical elements for reduced distortion and improved sharpness, Broad-Band Anti-Reflection coating for reduced flares and ghosting and improved contrast, a 0.27x maximum magnification, Optimized Silent Drive motor, vibration compensation of up to five stops, moisture-resistant construction, and a rounded nine-blade diaphragm for smooth bokeh.

I am personally quite intrigued by this lens, and it very well may end up being my next walkaround lens. Check out the video above for Trotti's full thoughts.
