    28–105mm · f/4–5.6

    Overview

    The Tamron AF 28-105mm f/4-5.6 IF is a budget-friendly zoom lens with solid build, including a metal mount and no lens creep. Optical strengths include good sharpness, especially in the center, and accurate color reproduction. Weaknesses include flare when pointed toward the sun and a plasticky feel with some zoom barrel wobble. It suits budget-conscious users needing a decent all-around lens for well-lit conditions, but its slow aperture limits low-light performance.
