Tamron has really delivered a fine lens at an attractive price. At 90/135mm focal length (depending on sensor size), it is a good portrait lens. Out-of-focus background highlights (bokeh) are soft and luminous. Tamron describes it as ''moisture proof'', a...

Excellent image quality, great value, durable design, large focus ring, great value for the price, weather sealed
No Sony mount at launch

Large focus ring is easy to find while shooting, Excellent quality from lens, Fast and accurate AF motor, Outstanding VC stabilization Manual focus override is always active, Great Price, Moisture and Dust resistant allows for use in almost all shooting
No aperture control on the lens, No option for most interchangeable lens camera mounts
