Overview

The Tamron SP 90mm F2.8 Di VC USD Macro offers superb sharpness from center to edge, excellent contrast, and very low chromatic aberration and distortion. Its build is solid with moisture-resistant seals and a fluorine-coated front element. The VC provides about 3 stops of benefit. Weaknesses include occasional AF hunting and slight bokeh inferiority to faster primes. It suits macro and portrait photographers seeking a versatile, high-quality lens at a reasonable price.
