    35–105mm · f/2.8

    Overview

    The Tamron SP 35-105mm f/2.8 Aspherical 65D offers excellent sharpness from 35-70mm, especially at f/4, but softens from 80-105mm with a 'flou effect' and loss of micro contrast. Build quality is solid and sturdy. Weaknesses include veiling haze and flare in high-contrast lighting, a rotating front element that hinders polarizer use, and a small hood. It suits studio portrait work and controlled environments, and is ideal for travel/outdoor use.
