Tamron 35-150mm f/2-2.8 Di III VXD — The ideal event photographers’ lens

The Tamron 35-150mm f/2-2.8 is quickly becoming my most-used lens. It’s tack sharp, outputs beautiful bokeh and focuses quickly and accurately. As an event photographer, this is my top lens, and I’ve found that I can photograph almost all of my events with just this one lens. Having a fast zoom with a maximum aperture of f/2-2.8? Yes please! Here’s what I had to say in my review:

“If there’s one lens I’m most excited about for pros right now, it’s the Tamron 35-150mm. I think back on all the times where I’ve had to quickly change lenses, nearly missing a shot in the process. The Tamron 35-150mm helps to avoid those situations, and really can replace two standard event or photojournalism lenses.”
