Tamron Adaptall SP 28-105mm f/2.8 LD Aspherical (IF)

Excuse me but this lens is the Tamron SP 28-105mm F2.8 Adaptall 2 is it not? A manual focus lens? Some reviews done are for the AF version which is obviously not this lens at all.

Fantastic lens. Sharp, I have had 3. The first was stolen with my Fuji S1. The second sits on my Canon 5d and the last on sits on my Nikon F5. This lens with its fast aperature and zoom range is a must for every photographer. When I shoot weddings - no...

I inherited this lens along with a Canon 20D. This has a good range of focal lengths, and is valuable as far as having a 2.8 aperture on a zoom. However, I've found this to be a fairly soft lens, especially at the longer focal lengths, where it becomes...

i bought this lens used.in great shape..my 1st impression was WOW!!!dude!!*&^, its so big,its gigantic, massive size may the biggest in its range, the build is all plastic, but solid, can you imagine if this lens was made all metal?, it would weigh...

I think I got a useful lens, many people complain about the softness at 2.8, well, many lenses do have the same prblem. Just use a bit higher aperture.The Tamron AF misses often times viewfinder targets, is quite slow, bulky and heavy, but this lens...

This is realy a great lens, it is fast and focuses tack on with very sharp and contrasty results, I´m using it with my CANON eos 10d and it works in every setting without any problems I´m shure that those who have negative expirences must have gotten...

For the price paid, a consistantly soft lens with poor color quality. Addition of costly polarizer no help. My only other 3d party lens was a Tokina lens 28-80 and very sharp - so I am not down on these. Will sell lens and look for better one than this...

I purchased this lens for the range and speed. I have never liked the lens, as it has always seemed soft. I almost sent it in for repair thinking it was defective. I recently purchased a fuji s2. I have to manually fucus it to get every ounce of...

Horrible lense. Extremely soft focus.Pictures lack detail.

Consistant, corner to corner, sharp, contrast and even performance at all aperatures. People, animal, landscape shots are excellent. I have enlarged 1/3 of the negative/slide to over 13 x 17 inches with 100 asa film and it shows remarkable hair fine...
