One of the most commercially successful lenses in recent years was the Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 Di III RXD, which offered an impressive blend of performance, image quality, and portability all at a very affordable price, particularly when compared to other 24-70mm f/2.8 options. The second iteration of the lens is here, and it brings with it a range of improvements. This great video review takes a look at the lens and the kind of image quality and performance you can expect from it in the real world. 

Coming to you from Chris Turner Photographer, this video review takes a look at the Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 Di III G2 RXD lens. The original version was one of the most popular lenses we have seen in recent years and led to Tamron’s expanded lineup of f/2.8 professional zooms, all of which are quite respected. Like other 24-70mm f/2.8 lenses, it offers a versatile focal length range for everything from events and wedding coverage to lifestyle and landscape photography. However, unlike most other options, it does so at a much more affordable price — cheap enough, in fact, that you can pair it with the 17-28mm f/2.8 Di III RXD or 70-180mm f/2.8 Di III VXD for a total price that is about the same as a single first-party 24-70mm f/2.8. Check out the video above for the full rundown from Turner.
