    Bought this lens for a trip I had for Peru, and i just have to say that i don’t regret at all this purchase. It is a bit in the heavier side but instead of traveling with 2-3 lenses, i traveled with only this lens and I loved every image i captured

    This is a great stabilized lens. I love the wide angle on it and it is also very versatile.

    I was price shopping for the Tamron 17-77mm lens because of its constant f2.8. When I visited Best Buy in October, it was listed at $699.99. The young lady that was helping me showed me how to download the app and place a price drop alert. Two weeks later, I was alerted that the price had dropped $100. With that reduction and an 18 month interest-free purchase plan, the lens is now seated on my Sony A 6400 camera. I am one happy shopper.

    Versatile, and can't beat the price. Quality is overall good! This replaces my 18-55mm and 28-70mm lenses and at an f2.8 aperture beats both lenses for low light.

    This lens is so versatile, it stays on my camera most of the time! It can capture from wide to really close up shots at your own convenience. The image that comes out of this is just sharp!

    I mostly do landscapes and I shoot most with my wide angle 14mm f/1.4, but this has been an excellent addition for my photography. Gives me the ability to zoom in when I need to just enough to still get great landscapes. It’s a great lens at a great price.

    This lens makes such a huge difference for my Sony ZVE-10. I did not realize how much better the quality was until I pulled up the photos I took on my MacBook! If you are considering upgrading your camera, this lens is hands down amazing!!

    Excellent lens. Using my Sony A7III with this Tamron 28-70 f/2.8 lens, I don’t need anything else. It’s a versatile lens with a great aperture that allows me to get bokeh at different focal lengths.
