Latest Review Posted | Tamron Adaptall-2 (01B) 24mm F2.5 Having got an Adaptall 28mm F2.5, I decided I wanted something wider, so sourced a 24mm with P/KA mount.
This worked fine at first, but then seemed to 'stick' at F4 whilst in TAV mode. I can still manually select F2.5, but no longer through the camera. I am assuming this is a mount fault rather than a lens issue. Anyone else had this issue?
Anyway, the lens is solidly built and has a nice weight to it, which balances my K-7 nicely.
The field of view is 36mm equiv, which is ideal for street photography and as a general walk around lens.
The aperture range is pretty broad from F2.5 to F32, but I would suggest that F4 to F16 give the best performance.
My adaptall 28mm is in better condition (near mint), but I just love the field of view on this one. This is a keeper for me. |
