I did already buy this lens. The extra range with the 70mm is what I need. I get alot of candid photos that aren't always close of my family. This is the only camera I believe that has the image stabilization, especially in this price range. I figured this would help alot with my photos and require less lens changes when I'm out and about with my a6400
The Sony 18-105 with OSS is my go-to all-around lens with the a6400. I was considering the 17-70 especially with the F2.8 aperture but I'm concerned about Tamron's VC stabilization. Do you use it to shoot videos? If the result is the same as in Terry's sample footage, maybe the 17-70 would be a no-go for me. Cheers.
@@randkjournali've sold 18-105 and bought 18-135. Despite variable aperture i find it better lens for photos. Zooming is faster and it's not resetting to 18mm. Extra reach is also great.
@@wojciechkanclerski I came across a relatively inexpensive used Sony Zeiss 16-70 F4 so I went with this instead. The biggest plus with this lens is the small form-factor which has really become a big consideration for me lately especially for traveling - keeping the gear lighter and more compact. At 16mm, I get extra room at the wide end which helps offset the cropping when shooting video in 4K. I do miss the extra reach but I've learned to rely on Clear Image Zoom when necessary. For photos, I was pleasantly surprised how sharp it is (at least sharp enough for me) - which is contrary to most of the things I've read about this lens. Only drawbacks - it appears a little sluggish on autofocus and, this is not a lens to be used under bad weather conditions.
I totally enjoyed your presentation on the Tamron 17-70 2.8. I wish to compliment you on your energy, approach, Spirit, presentation and observations. Yours is an absolutely informative and refreshing approach to reviewing. Outstanding! Congratulations. Col. (Ret) D. Shaffer
You can get a wrist strap for those days when people come by and slap your camera out of your hands but when that happens I suspect there's other issues at hand.
I only have 2 lenses in my camera bag for my a6400. The Sigma 56mm f1.4 and the 17-70mm Tamron f2.8 and it’s the best set you can have for apsc. You can do it all with these two, events, portrait, macro, vlogging, and the reach at 70mm converted to a 105mm full frame equivalent is niceeee. The only thing I would add to my bag would be a telephoto lens for wildlife
This is a must-have travel lens in my opinion. I have the old Tamron 28-105 f2.8, which I love and have been using adapted. But, really wish I had the autofocusing capabilities and greater contrast wide open. I think this would be an excellent lens to pair with the new fx30.
Still here!! amazing review by the way, you were very thorough, answered all my questions, informed me and never failed to retain my attention and interest. Much love
Hi, I’m planning to buy this lens ( 17-70 2.8 tamron ) for photography specifically for wedding photography, covering both the ceremony and reception. My camera body is the Sony a6400. Previously, I used the Sony 18-105mm f/4 lens, but I found it lacking in sharpness. Could you please recommend a suitable lens that would provide better image quality for these types of events? Thank you!
The way the bokeh works is that you get the same bokeh on the APS-C if you just walk farther back, so you actually do need the 17-70mm range to get a descent bokeh, which is going to be better for portraits, but at that focal length the lens isn't that sharp. I don't think it's a problem for 4K video, more for pixel peeping.
Hi, Terry! Thanx for the honest review! All I've seen before yours about video shooting was like "wow! it practically makes gimbles not necessary!" I think that those people were shooting very accurately. Few days before I've bought a used Glidecam HD-2000 and was happy as a child )) I've got it just for a fraction of it's cost. It's pretty old and ppl now are obsessed with electronic gimbles like Chinese "Cranes" and etc. But once I've seen and heard all their issues I've decided to start with classics. My main lens is a very cheap XC 16-50 for Fuji. The body (X-T3) itself is claimed to be "weather protected". Meaning that I can shoot in very light rain situations easily. At least I don't need to run for some umbrella urgently. And the steadycam is on par with it. Here I like that Tamron 17-70 claimed to be "weather protected" too... But... Did you've tested how it live on -5 ~ -10C conditions? Also I imagine that I'll need about 400g more on my steadycam in the bottom (maybe 300-350 as the head in my current setup is a bit too liteweight). I'm doing my "gym" with Glidecam now almost everyday :)) So I'll become a One Punch-man if it will not kill me :))) Relatively to that "pixel snobbing"... If you've seen some cheap 7artisans lenses then maybe you'll become "converted" :)) When I've did my spontaneous buy of a used Meike 28mm lens the guy also did offered me 35mm 7Artisans for a good price (for almost 2x more than Meike)... I've found that 7Artisans can't handle sharp shots (of far away objects) even with the fully closed diaphragm! I've noticed that even my current cheap Fujicon is much better! Meike does the job very well. I've got it for ~50$ and it's a good little thing (I have no fixes yet) to shoot at night. I'm seriously thinking about this Tamron but I think I'll wait about a year and the prices for the used units will become lower since Tamron will make some better lens (they can IMO).
For me I found the stabilization to be enough to make the difference between usable and unusable footage. I want to eventually sell my a6400 and get an a6600 which I think will be perfect for all my video needs as far as stabilization goes.
@@leeteivans2509 can't really say, because I ended up selling mine not long after that comment lol. I didn't really try vlogging with it much because I found 17mm wasn't wide enough, especially for someone as tall as myself. If you are careful with how you walk it should be usable.
Already bought it and use it for mostly landscape and river photography. Got it used, so, I saved there. Collects dust, but, I will be getting a UV filter. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
I’ve been shooting primes my whole life and in the last year or so sold all of them for many zooms. Zooms are underrated now that their quality is relatively superb.
Great video and review! I think this lens is perfect for someone like me. I shoot with an a6400 and still have the kit 16-55 lens as my wide angle/zoom and have been eyeing this lens up for a little bit. You helped seal the deal when I can afford it! Thanks!
I’ve been wanted to get this lens so bad! For the range you can cover with it it’s such a good price. Loved the video, and I loved listening to you in the golden hour podcast!
The vlog test is pretty shaky/wobbly, even though you're standing in one place. I feel like the 18-105 gives a more clean, stable image. Do you have a chance to compare those two?
I have a video comparing the 18-105mm to another lens and camera combo - the Fujifilm X-S10 + XF 18-55mm. Basically it's Sony OSS vs Fuji IBIS+OIS. I realize it's not a comparison to the Tamron 17-70mm but it demonstrates how the Sony 18-105 OSS can hold its own (to some degree). Here's the link in case you're interested: th-cam.com/video/E8-PDUUCDqE/w-d-xo.html
Hello, I would like to ask you, I have seen some videos of this lens presenting problems with stabilization, apparently the lens stabilization is not very compatible with the camera stabilization, I saw a video with a Sony fx30, but I don't know if it is with the 7iv something similar happened? Could you give me your opinion please?
Thanks. About to enter into the ‘mirrorless’ cameras and was looking at this lens….very informative, think I get another brand with similar specs….looking forward to your other reviews….
Thank you for this post. Very informative and helpful (and also engaging and entertaining). Quite interesting to see this "wobble effect" with the Tamron 17-70mm lens. I have seen this before as well on the a6400 and the 16-50mm kit lens. For the life of me, I'm not sure what I did to fix this wobble effect issue. It could have been a firmware update or a setting I've changed. I also do not recall experiencing this issue with other Sony lenses - 18-105mm, 10-18mm, and the 28-70mm full frame kit lens. I considered getting the 17-70 for its wider aperture but I may stick with the 18-105.
I already bought the lens but I wish I'd watched this first, I love it but it is a little big and this is the best vid by a mile for getting a sense of scale in the hand. Also having a second camera angle to the side when u talking actually helps a lot to keep the pacing up. Great vid bro, subscribed
I was gifted this lens, just haven't picked it up yet. I was doing reviews on it because I was looking at it before someone gifted it to me. I needed a f2.8 zoom lens for my fs5 because it's not the best at low light (until you switch from iso to gain/db. Then it's much better). The vc is a big plus, it's probably not the best but the fs5 have no stabilization what so ever 😂. I'm definitely excited about using the lens. Especially for you my youtube channel!! Thx ya bruh 🙏🏽
First time I've ever been told by a TH-camr to hit the thumbs up & subscribe buttons and actually convince me to do it! Much support bro, thanks for the video
This makes me feel old but VR (vibration reduction or compensation or control) is not stabilisation at all. Its essentially helping you focus at 70mm apsc and keeping focus between focusing and taking the picture.
I appreciate your energy. I was watching some other videos that were so boring. I clicked on this and was so drawn in by your enthusiasm. I’m a Sigma fan but curious about Tamron Thanks!
Thanks for doing this. I was thinking about picking up a Sony body soon and was peeking at this lens. Unrelated, do you like that table tripod your camera is on? If so, what brand is that?
Thanks for watching man! It came with a Vlog Kit I got at Samsung Unpacked last year. I think it’s by Movi or Movo. One of the two companies. And...it’s decent I guess. I wish it was more sturdy I’ll likely be getting a beefier one soon
@@TerryWarfield yeah I've been researching table top tripods too (along with lenses). It's hard because a lot of them are too small. Thanks for letting me know
Top cat Terry! I see you brother, hey thanks for sharing just today I was setting at my desk trying to decide should I or shouldn't I cop this glass, and then there you are giving the really real on the very item I'm thinking about, so thank you for your very informative tutorial it was extremely helpful, This was my first time watching your channel and I truly believe I'll be all the better for it, real talk is good talk much luv brother, oh and yes I'm a coper!✌️
you say it's 25MM equivalent but that would be if you used it on a full frame camera. you're using it on a crop sensor so it would be and is 17MM (since it is an APS-C lens). right? or am i missing something here?
@@summaof96 would it actually be 25-105? The crop doesn’t affect just on apsc cameras? Like on the full frame should still be 17-70 isn’t it? Cause some people say they use this lens with super 35 mode, apsc mode, but if you shoot without this mode is it not a normal 17-70?? In any case i decided to go for the 28-75 VXD, then go for a 16mm viltrox and i’m still thinking which one between 90mm or 135mm
I got sigma 16mm f1.4 and close focusing is very useful. Sony or full frame versions are mostly unable to do that. Major difference compared to Sony's 16-55 besides that is focusing speed, deciding would be based on those 2 points. There is one up for Sony though, if you own super wide or prime with close focus at 16mm, it's easily better to buy Sony, since you are covered for that situation.
Not sure if it’s been brought up, I don’t have time to read all the comments… but a lot of the walking “warbles” you see isn’t the lens at all. It’s the AWFUL rolling shutter of the camera being used. I’d love a revisit of this lens on the a6700. I bet it changes everything.
I right now am running the Sigma trio, and the lack of quick access to other focal ranges on type of content i do makes me really interested in move into this 17-70, or a 24-70 from sigma, but honestly, the bigger range and cheapest price for 17-70 is way more interesting
Wich option is good if i'm using apsc but i want to buy something that could work on a eventual future full frame camera? i'm thinking on sigma 24,28-70 or tamrom 28-75
Great review! Can I ask if I can get “cinematic “ feel out of the A6400 without post correction? Reason being I am attracted also to Fuji’s film simulation modes for movie. But in all otter aspects the Sony is way better, so I am not sure which one to buy - any thoughts?
I have an a6400 and I'd suggest you youtube a6400 cinematic, it'll show you how to setup a picture profile. Ultimately, I'd shot in s-log/raw and color correct - would be fun to learn
OMG, Terry your “Navi” from Zelda sound is my text message tone so I kept checking my phone but didn’t see a text! Took me a few minutes to realize it was from your video as I had to rewind it!! Lmao
Using this tamron for few days, love the flexiblity and sharpness, the only issue that im unhappy with this lens is that it gives A LOT of aberration and ugly bokeh at f/2.8, mosty I use f/4 or above on this lens, cause anything below often needs a lot of post process to repair photo. On other hand it's only 800$ so it can't be perfect :D
The flaring is good to know about, as I was wondering if this is usable for infrared photography on my Fuji. I think I'll wait for this to be available to rent so I can test it before I buy. But seeing as how I'm all stills, this could still be good for my visible-light X-T3 for general purpose and macro! Great review!
Yo Terry video is looking good man , You really stepped up that lighting game, I can dig it. anyway keep up the good reviews I'm a full frame head so I'm waiting on the next joint, likes your outlook with the A7S3 too, all right , ☮️ peace ✌🏾.
The only other lens that competes with this Tamron lens is the Sony 16-55mm G lens but that sucker is $1,300 bucks on Amazon right now! Plus it doesn't have any kind of stabilization feature. Crispy sharp imagines but that's only if your hands never move... Unless you have the a6600 with IBIS. But with IBIS and this Tamron lens that has internal stabilization feature... For $800 on Amazon? Definitely would choose Tamron for now.
do you think this is better than the sigma 24-70 f 2.8 art? i know the sigma is for FF but you can use it with sony E mount so, wich one you think is better bro?
Forget about the lens for now coz im loving the color grade “for the vlog”! Im new subscriber here gonna check your videos hopefully I can find a tutorial about your color grading process otherwise you have to make one “pls”
Gonna slap this bad boy on my a6600. I’ve been a fan of Tamron. I have the holy trinity Tamron on my a7iii and I’m very happy with it. This is a no brainer. Thanks for this review.
This was everything I wanted to know about this lens. Appreciate your mix of perspective and specs, plus all the test shots and use cases. 🙏
Thanks for watching! I appreciate you bro
Yeah, we are

@ no
This is a must-have travel lens in my opinion. I have the old Tamron 28-105 f2.8, which I love and have been using adapted. But, really wish I had the autofocusing capabilities and greater contrast wide open. I think this would be an excellent lens to pair with the new fx30.

I would appreciate a video where you talk about the diffrent lineups of tamron lenses and what to get for APSC vs FF cameras.

Should I buy sony a6400 with kit lens or body only and buy lens seperately? As people are saying kit lens is only a show piece. Is it true?
Found your channel whilst looking to buy this lens. Great review. I'm buying it now for my A6700. Presentation skills on point. Sub'd.
Same shoes as you bro. Also thinking of sigma 24 to 70
I have one! I loved it with my @6000! My all-in-one, super sharp go-to lens!
This makes me feel old but VR (vibration reduction or compensation or control) is not stabilisation at all. Its essentially helping you focus at 70mm apsc and keeping focus between focusing and taking the picture.
Fantastic review! How does it compare to the Sony 16-55 2.8?
Great review, thanks! I'm bidding on one of these right now to use on my Sony FS5. Could be the one lens I need fo ray travel films.
It's a great lens. I'm keeping it. The far and close range is fantastic and I am selling the other primes I have.
Can Tamron 17-70mm F2.8 give the same result as 3 separate lenses SIGMA 16mm 1.4 / SIGMA 30mm 1.4 / SIGMA 56mm 1.4? I want to use it for portraits
Apart from stabilization and one-lenseness, the set of SIGMAs is way superior in quality imho.
I appreciate your energy. I was watching some other videos that were so boring. I clicked on this and was so drawn in by your enthusiasm. I’m a Sigma fan but curious about Tamron Thanks!
Which lens is best for making indoor TH-cam videos?
This video was super informative. I care more about video and was debating this vs the sigma 18-50mm. After seeing this im going with the sigma
Do you think selling my Sony 18-105 and either Sigma 16 or 30 to offset the price is a smart move?
Keep that 16!! Other than that as long as you won’t miss that reach at the longer end, I’d say go for it alone for F2.8 vs F4
I'm not even looking for a new lens but damn dude I just glued myself to the vid. Now I want a new lens, though. Amazing channel, dude 💪
Thanks for doing this. I was thinking about picking up a Sony body soon and was peeking at this lens.

Thanks for watching man! It came with a Vlog Kit I got at Samsung Unpacked last year. I think it’s by Movi or Movo. One of the two companies. And...it’s decent I guess. I wish it was more sturdy I’ll likely be getting a beefier one soon
@@TerryWarfield yeah I've been researching table top tripods too (along with lenses). It's hard because a lot of them are too small.
Thanks for letting me know
For reference. I can put the a7siii+cage+24-70mm GM and it will hold it as long as I don’t angle the lens downward
Hi, I have sony 18-135, does it worth to replace it with Tamron 17-70? Thank you
Top cat Terry! I see you brother, hey thanks for sharing just today I was setting at my desk trying to decide should I or shouldn't I cop this glass, and then there you are giving the really real on the very item I'm thinking about, so thank you for your very informative tutorial it was extremely helpful, This was my first time watching your channel and I truly believe I'll be all the better for it, real talk is good talk much luv brother, oh and yes I'm a coper!✌️
you say it's 25MM equivalent but that would be if you used it on a full frame camera. you're using it on a crop sensor so it would be and is 17MM (since it is an APS-C lens). right? or am i missing something here?
Doesn’t it work on a full frame camera? Cause i was thinking to buy the a7iv and get this lens but i now realise that is for apsc cameras
I was wondering the same for the a7iii but it'll just be a 25.5mm-105. So for me that's good because I do alot of video, especially with fs5.
@@summaof96 would it actually be 25-105? The crop doesn’t affect just on apsc cameras?
Like on the full frame should still be 17-70 isn’t it? Cause some people say they use this lens with super 35 mode, apsc mode, but if you shoot without this mode is it not a normal 17-70??
In any case i decided to go for the 28-75 VXD, then go for a 16mm viltrox and i’m still thinking which one between 90mm or 135mm
@@Tony.Visual nawl it would be 25-105 because it's a apsc lens going on a full frame body.
@@summaof96 so is not gonna even be 2.8 but would be 4.2
@@Tony.Visual super 35 is still a crop sensor. Speaking from experience with my fs5 and a7iii Idk about any of the newer Sony cameras.
I got sigma 16mm f1.4 and close focusing is very useful. Sony or full frame versions are mostly unable to do that. Major difference compared to Sony's 16-55 besides that is focusing speed, deciding would be based on those 2 points. There is one up for Sony though, if you own super wide or prime with close focus at 16mm, it's easily better to buy Sony, since you are covered for that situation.
I just copped this for my Sony A6400. Great review man!
How is that combo working out months later...looking at it for my 6600
Not sure if it’s been brought up, I don’t have time to read all the comments… but a lot of the walking “warbles” you see isn’t the lens at all. It’s the AWFUL rolling shutter of the camera being used. I’d love a revisit of this lens on the a6700. I bet it changes everything.
What you guys recommend Tamron 17-70 f/2.8 or Sigma trio f/1.4?
Tamron 17-70 f/2.8, Sigma 16 mm f1/4 a Sigma 56 mm f1/4 . My combo I also had a 30 mm f1/4, but there was no use.
@@lukas_runner_czWhy do you say there was no use if you don’t mind
@@Musicomni150 I replaced the Sigma 30mm 1/4 with a Tamron 17-70 2/8. I kept the 56mm 1/4 for portraits.
@@lukas_runner_cz Oh cool , do you have any issues with the tamron , like autofocus or what i’ve seen some people talk about some vibration
I right now am running the Sigma trio, and the lack of quick access to other focal ranges on type of content i do makes me really interested in move into this 17-70, or a 24-70 from sigma, but honestly, the bigger range and cheapest price for 17-70 is way more interesting
Would this work well to record drum videos ? My Sony a6100 with stock lens makes the drum sticks look like noodles. How can I fix this ?
Wich option is good if i'm using apsc but i want to buy something that could work on a eventual future full frame camera? i'm thinking on sigma 24,28-70 or tamrom 28-75
1:48 "And also.." is my favorite thing now 🔥😂
Thanks a lot for your content dude! amazing review, a close aproach to the reality, keep doing your job u're really god on it!
Great review! Can I ask if I can get “cinematic “ feel out of the A6400 without post correction? Reason being I am attracted also to Fuji’s film simulation modes for movie. But in all otter aspects the Sony is way better, so I am not sure which one to buy - any thoughts?
I have an a6400 and I'd suggest you youtube a6400 cinematic, it'll show you how to setup a picture profile. Ultimately, I'd shot in s-log/raw and color correct - would be fun to learn
Just about to buy this lens. Thanks for the review! Great stuff
OMG, Terry your “Navi” from Zelda sound is my text message tone so I kept checking my phone but didn’t see a text! Took me a few minutes to realize it was from your video as I had to rewind it!! Lmao
Haha I am a Zelda nerd for life!
How do you turn off the stabilization with this lens. I have it on order, but then realized it doesn't have a switch.
Excellent, straight forward review!
What camera and lens did you use to shoot this video? Looks good.
what is the bad boy you waved to reduce the flaring
Using this tamron for few days, love the flexiblity and sharpness, the only issue that im unhappy with this lens is that it gives A LOT of aberration and ugly bokeh at f/2.8, mosty I use f/4 or above on this lens, cause anything below often needs a lot of post process to repair photo. On other hand it's only 800$ so it can't be perfect :D
Great review mate. Appreciate it!
Word RC dude. There ya go. I gotta get back to this vid.
I forgot to come.back and watch your video. I'm on it now. Good plug for the other dude you don't see to many brothas in R/C.
The flaring is good to know about, as I was wondering if this is usable for infrared photography on my Fuji. I think I'll wait for this to be available to rent so I can test it before I buy.
But seeing as how I'm all stills, this could still be good for my visible-light X-T3 for general purpose and macro!
Great review!
Yo Terry video is looking good man , You really stepped up that lighting game, I can dig it. anyway keep up the good reviews I'm a full frame head so I'm waiting on the next joint, likes your outlook with the A7S3 too, all right , ☮️ peace ✌🏾.
The only other lens that competes with this Tamron lens is the Sony 16-55mm G lens but that sucker is $1,300 bucks on Amazon right now! Plus it doesn't have any kind of stabilization feature. Crispy sharp imagines but that's only if your hands never move... Unless you have the a6600 with IBIS. But with IBIS and this Tamron lens that has internal stabilization feature... For $800 on Amazon? Definitely would choose Tamron for now.
do you think this is better than the sigma 24-70 f 2.8 art? i know the sigma is for FF but you can use it with sony E mount so, wich one you think is better bro?
Please tell me sony 1670 and Tamron which is sharp please reply soon
Yo one question does the TAMRON 17-70 work on the Canon Eos R
Nice story dude. This was informative as well as entertaining.
Man your RBG lights look so dope. Dog you’re set up. 🔥🔥 #Fam
Thanks bro!
That was supposed to say Dig your set up. Stupid fat finger when I type on my phone.
Thanx for your honest review man
Great energy and personality. Not your typical review! Keep it up bro #fam
Nice review. I do mainly photograph. How is this lens compare to the Sigma 18-50mm?
Sold!
What’s the camera sitting on while on the desk? Seems legit! Could you use it to vlog?
Hey bro, how do you feel about the lens for use with short films and music videos??
It’s a good lens
Newbie question here: this lens fits in a Canon SL3?
I really like the colors in your work. Thanks for the video. Like you sait: it works.
Great video as always , wanna ask is it how far away from sony 85mm 1.8 when we talk about portraits?
I don't see anyone comparing this to the sigma 24 to 70 f2.8 art lens? Thoughts?
Forget about the lens for now coz im loving the color grade “for the vlog”! Im new subscriber here gonna check your videos hopefully I can find a tutorial about your color grading process otherwise you have to make one “pls”
Have you tried 17 70 in sports photog? Thank you!
That price is right. You just gotta go with the value. Looks like Tamron is looking to capture that Sony mid range market. Good video and info.
Awesome review man! THank you for your analytic video ! i am an onwer of a6400 and i am digging these lens! i will consider buying them!👍👌
Can you help me ? if i want to do a setup like your in this video What power should I put on the keylight?
Is there a full frame version is this lens?
Gonna slap this bad boy on my a6600. I’ve been a fan of Tamron. I have the holy trinity Tamron on my a7iii and I’m very happy with it. This is a no brainer. Thanks for this review.
Tight shirt terry! 😂😂😂 great review
😂😂😂 I watched your as well after the lens launched. Thanks man!
