The Tamron 45mm f1.8 is an impressive performer, albeit perhaps with not quite the resolution of its 35mm sibling. In addition, as a standard focal length, it is up against a number of equally impressive rivals, some of which are more accessibly-priced. B...

Tamron's range of Superior Performance (SP) third-party lenses for Canon, Nikon, and Sony are really giving the own-brand manufacturers something to think about. Tamron's latest SP 45mm f/1.8 standard focal length prime is no exception, delivering outstan...
Weather sealing, Nice bokeh, Nice textured feel in the hand,
Quality control issues seem to be apparent, I really, really want to like the Tamron 45mm f1.8 Di VC. It's got image stabilization, nine aperture blades, weather sealing, an affordable price, and can deliver good image quality to the user. Plus, it's got
The Tamron 45mm f1.8 Di VC is a lens that incorporates weather sealing, retails for $599, and has some great color and bokeh.The Phoblographer's Guide to Tamron Prime LensesIn our years of reviewing lenses, we've reviewed a whole lot of prime lenses--incl...

Very good quality across the full-frame area, Weather sealing, Quiet and fast AF operation, Good image stabilization
Longitudinal CAs and purple ghosting, Not the best Bokeh
The new Tamron 45/1.8 VC is a very versatile and interesting lens: It offers a fast f/1.8 aperture combined with image-stabilization that is good for two stops in my tests. Both allow the lens to hold out longer in dimly lit situations. It produces very s...
A new lens model for any company always brings lots of anticipation for me as I always love to see what the latest technology brings us. When a new lens model has a feature set not before seen, that level of anticipation is increased. With the ultra-high...
solid, stylish and moisture resistant casing, minimum focusing distance already from 0.29 of a meter, very good image quality in the frame centre, good image quality on the edge of the APSC sensor, acceptable image quality on the edge of full frame, lack
autofocus should have been faster, There was a lot of media noise around this Tamron launch so, understandably, our expectations, were high. We heard so much about the new philosophy, new casings, new optical constructions, optimized for densely packed se
I suppose the presence of the Sigma A 50 mm f/1.4 HSM on the market might prove to be the biggest problem of the instrument tested by us. The Sigma is a bit more expensive than the Tamron but it is also faster. The Tamron's selling points, among other thi...
Taking a page out of Sigma's book, Tamron is revamping their higher-end 'SP' line of premium lenses, starting with a pair of fast, ƒ/1.8 image stabilized prime lenses. The longer 45mm ƒ/1.8 VC prime offers an excellent balance of affordable price and imag...

Very sharp. Minimal distortion. Wide maximum aperture. Optically stabilized. Good close focus capability. Weather-sealed design. Available for Canon, Nikon, and Sony SLRs.
Shows color fringing. Edge performance isn't as strong as center. Heavy for its size
The Tamron SP 45mm f/1.8 Di VC USD is a sharp, stabilized standard-angle lens, but color fringing can be an issue at wide apertures...

Abstract: To make a better lens, one that avid photographers might even be inclined to leave on their DSLR camera permanently, Tamron set aside all of their former notions about lens design and construction and went straight back to the basics with the new Tamron S...
There was plenty of media hype when Tamron announced its new f/1.8 prime lenses so it was good to have a chance to see how much of it was based on real life experiences. The answer is complex.In some ways the new 45mm f/1.8 lens is a good performer; not g...
