Tamron introduced the first super, super zoom, so it was no surprise that they would stretch the limits of the ultra wide-angle zoom, not only that but they've now introduced their second version. And here we take a look at the lens that's a prime target for lovers of landscape and architecture photography.
First a quick note about the Di lens format. They are designed for use on digital SLRs and feature an improved coating technology with anti-reflection designs to cope with stronger internal reflections that may be created inside the mirror box of the camera or from light bouncing off the CCD or CMOS sensors which are almost mirror-like on their surface..
Many larger sensor digital cameras have an automatic sensor crop so you view the safe/recorded area. On any other camera you could crop the result, but it means you wouldn't get the benefit of all those extra pixels you paid for and you may miss out on detail around the edges that you hadn't compensated for.
So we're looking at a 10-24mm zoom range. Because of this crop you get the 35mm equivalent of 16mm to 38.5mm wide-angle on a Canon with a 1.6x magnification and 15-36mm on a Nikon, Sony or Pentax with a 1.5x sensor magnification.
Those who've done some basic research will have noted that Tamron has the edge over the independent competition. Sigma manage to match the wide end with their 10-20mm and Tokina match the longer end with their 12-24mm, but here we have the best of both worlds.
The lens has 7 blades which gives decent bokeh, but not as good as the Tokina which has 9 blades or the Canon 10-22mm with a circular aperture. The Sigma falls short here with just 6 blades.
The Tamron 10-24mm has the same 77mm filter thread adopted by all the super wide zoom lenses. It's quite costly to kit out with the usual skylight and polariser.
We're testing the lens in Nikon AF fit on a D300 body. The lens has all the electronic couplings to perform the various advanced metering and focusing options the D300 camera provides. The same goes for all the versions - you should get full compatibility with any camera currently made.
We are also using a Pentax K7 with the Pentax 12-24mm lens to gain some extra comparison data.
