My 2 favorite youtube reviewers or photo gear. I am always happy when you upload a new video , you 2 are doing a great job .
Thank you for taking the time to show us the lens.
That intro! :') Actually liked the video purely from that. Beautiful start to my day. Now.. to watch past 18 seconds
Despite the bit of overlap, I could definitely see this being a nice companion for the 16-55mm 2.8 as well. I was considering the 10-18mm Sony, but this might end up being my first Tamron lens...
What an amazing review. Mine is arriving Friday. Can’t wait to add this to my real estate lenses
How are you liking it?
@@RaceGasSmellsGood it’s very good. 11mm is shockingly wide angle. Wish It was a bit lower aperture than 2.8, I would use it for vlogging on a camera with IBIS unfortunately mine doesn’t have it, but all in all very very good lens. Brilliant for live-streaming
@@thirtyminutefitness6169 Thanks for the reply and the info!
Nice and short review! Simple and Powerful!!!
Kindly do a review on new Tamron 18-300mm F/3.5-6.3 Di III-A VC VXD for Fuji X cameras.
It is sad you did not review the lens for vidéo, as this lens is on paper is probably the ultimate APSC vidéo Lens. Bring back blue eyes Jordan or we RIOT.
1:08 what a beautiful shot
Thank you!
Thanks for the video. Tamron 11-200mm f2.8 RXD or Sony E10-18mm F4 OSS ? which one would you buy and why? Thanks.
Looks like the perfect lense to combine with the Sigma 18-55mm F2.8
It would’ve been nice if we could’ve heard from Jordan regarding the lack of stabilization. It may not matter much for photos but video is a different animal. Even wide angle lenses would greatly benefit from VC, specially when shooting hand held. This is why we need to hear from Jordan more. Stop hogging the limelight, Chris. Jor-Dan! Jor-Dan! Jor-Dan!
I was actually shocked he had no video section in this.
Just not rely on stabilization. I even turn off IBIS in video. You should never rely on internal stabilization especially for wide angles.

Just bit the bullet and bought a slightly used tamron 11-20. After much deliberation. Was considering the sony 10to18 and samyang 12 prime. The tokina as well but it didnt have oss or weather sealing. With the tamron weather seal, better optics, and 2.8 helped me make the decision. The tamron 17 to 70 Was a huge difference on my a6000 as my sony lenses were underperforming in the blue and golden light times of day with slower apertures. These tamron lenses really brought a higher performance level to my a6000. The only lenses i have now are the tamron 11-20, tamron 17 -70 and sony g 70 to 350.
Nice review, I reside also at calgary.
I would love to do some vlogging, I still don't know which one would be better, this tamron or the 10-18 oss. The stabilisation must be great to have but that f2.8, you can use it low light... Which one would you get?
I would like to find the answer to the next question: does Tamron beat the Tokina ATX-i 11-20mm F2.8 CF?
Great review! I'll buy this
OK. You've convinced me!! I've kinda loved the Samyang 12mm F2, but it's time to move on up!!
I need an ultra wide angle lens for indoor Real Estate videography with Sony ZV-E10 camera, what do suggest which lens is wider and a good choice for my work, Tamron 11-20mm or Samyang 12mm, Tamron is more expensive in my country but if it's a better than I'll manage please advise ?
Can we use this lens on Fujifilm camera?
You can do comparison with Ricoh Pentax 11-18/2.8..
You guys are super courteous so I'll say it for you: when it comes to transmission, sharpness center to corner, and resolution: the 10-18 is not even close competition. The 11-20 f/2.8 dances circles (perhaps with onion rings) around it. The differences are so stark, you can see it on an A6000 screen, let alone in post. Stabilization is nice but if the picture quality can't match, either way...
If budget is not an issue, Viltrox 13mm or Tamron 11-20 f2 for Sony ZVe10?🙂 just planning to use it for travel … mostly in low light.. cos I have Tamron 17-70 for daylight
it seem like Jordan put 2 clips in breathing test in wrong order?
This lens for APC-S crop, not for Sony a7c?
Looks tempting but why no VC ?
Was waiting for this review since Tamron has announced lenses for Fujifilm now !! This with 17-70 f2.8 is the best travel combo for me on Fuji X mount when they get released !!
I wonder how long it will take them though. I really wish it comes soon. Tamron lenses and the Sigma f/1.4 primes are calling out to be from the E-mount.
Maybe this is a odd question, but If I have to choose one from Tamron 11-20mm f2.8 vs Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8, which one should I go for ? My requirements are travel photography, portraits of my daughter/wife and landscapes like mountains/ponds. Also I visit to cities in night so I take pics of architecture buildings that are glowed in night.
The sigma is more versatile. You can do portraits with the tamron but you wouldnt want to do close up head shots. If you needed wider then 18 you could try doing a panoramic shot.
I love your color grading. It's like I'm watching one of Apple's events.
Great!! What mic did you use outside?
They making this lens for Fujifilm?
Hope this lens would be available for Fujifilm too.
I came to say the same 😀
I wish it was stabilized, though, my X-T3 doesn't have IBIS...
@@RamonLinares Then Fujifilm makes a rather excellent 10-24mm
@@1barnet1 I have it, but the f4 is a bit limiting
@@RamonLinares In what way is F4 limiting? Since depth of field isn't a strong suit of wide angles on APSC anyway.
@@1barnet1 it's not about the depth of field, it's about the fact that it is one stop less of light and it forces me to increase the ISO that stop. With an f2.8 it starts to become usable for astro-photography, an f4 is really too high
Great video as usual. It would be a nice addition to Canon EF-M as well. Though it's too bad there isn't stabilization.
Have you guys reviewed the new Samyang/Rokinon 12mm F/2 yet? Would be very interesting to see a comparison of that lens to this one :)
my favorite timelapse lens
@@ChristianThueringer
Which it will remain. Easy to hike with and great for nightscapes at F2
this is also coming to RF-S mount :o
How they priced it similar to full frame version? Should be a little bit cheaper.
Agree. $699 would be ideal.
I think having Chris or Jordan in the thumbnail helps me to know to watch the video. Totally ignored this in my CZcams subscriptions box at first.
Can agree, there's a lot of series from DPR that I don't really care to watch, but I definitely want to watch anything from Chris and Jordan.
That's excellent feedback to have. We figured our faces turned people off but we stand corrected!
@@niccollsvideo Comon y'all know that you're the most beloved duo on CZcams🥰😆.
@@niccollsvideo i think That is where the CZcams thumbnails with the over the top faces come from;)
Loved that 6th of a noct expression 😂😂
When will Tamron make one for Canon mount?
Thanks for including the breathing. It tells me that this lens is not for me. I appreciate the thorough review.
Looks very nice. However, now that Sony E finally has all of the lenses to be a compelling system, the bodies disappoint. Why is it so hard to make an APS-C A7, Sony?
Wait, wait, wait.. @ 2:37 do I see that Chris *finally* upgraded his tired old tripod??
I've been using the Leofoto that we tested. It seems to be working well.
is the lens size suitable for a colonoscopy?
For some asshole, I think yes.
There's only one way to find out...and you're the right man for the job. Nichols, go get your camera/lens and get to work!
It will fit your mum's with room to spare.
In case you use it for elephants it's OK!
your asking the wrong group of people...;)
Haven’t you run out of different things to shoot in Calgary?
You guys always shoot your videos with Panasonic S1h. What non native lenses can be adapted to this camera ? What adapters are available to use with Panasonic cameras ?
Seems like Tamron keeps spitting out very competitive lenses, both for FF and APS-C.
I have the 28-75 and the 70-180 and am more than pleased with the handling and the results.
I have this with my a6600. Great combination. Got rid of the 10-18.
Hi, Ed. I see you got rid of the Sony lens for this one. Wondering if you use it more for video or photography.
@@BrianAlexSinger I only shoot stills mainly landscapes.
Where the heck is Jordan's video review?!
Highly considering this lens but for video. I have the 17-70 and have enjoyed it. Let’s see if this is my next purchase!
Bugger. I wish they’d start doing some RF mount lenses!
I appreciate the plant
What happened to the Thumbnail Font today? Simplified, I guess.
Just trying something new. I think it will be back to Canadian red and white next time though.
@@niccollsvideo No offense, the font looks a bit "cheap", I guess. (Sorry.) And a bit out of the ordinary for a long term viewer.
Climbing steps in your high heels does not look reassuring.. LOL!
How is the distortion with this lens?
Now bring that lens to Fuji!
the issue with this lens is price, it's not that much cheaper than 10-24 wr, not to mention older version at the same price (plus even cheaper used), and f/4 not that considerably slower, and on top of all image stabilization
I'd much prefer 70-180 f/2.8 (or even 200), fuji doesn't have anything like that sadly (only more expensive 50-140, and to my use the telephoto reach wasn't enough at all), but again, the competitor here is their 70-300, slower again, but with much higher reach and most importantly for much less cost
@@quite1enough it is true the 10-24 R OIS is cheaper second hand than this tamron.
Absolutely! At $200 Cdn cheaper than the Fuji, anyone who plans to use this on a tripod doesn't care about OIS (not to mention the bodies that are now getting IBIS), and there is a significant market of folks that won't buy used. Especially given Tamron's 10-year warranty. The 17-70 will be a much harder sell, since the lens alone is the same price as the 16-80, and yes, you get a stop of light with the Tamron, but the 16-80 is a bundled lens, and that price makes it far more compelling.
no need for it
it's coming to fuji X y'all
Will be great when Tamron ports this lens over to Canon R7.
You forgot to say E-Mount at the beginning. 😊
Yes give us that Fuji mount!
You can find these for $629 New on Ebay now, that's a great deal.
I'm just waiting for some astute TV or movie producer to offer Chris a gig.... I think he'd be a natural... he'd make a great Miami Vice type bad guy. Yeah.... really bad.
Tamron gotta release this for x mount!
Buy it!
Well done Tamron.
x mount incoming??
16,5-60mm F/4.2
Wow, I could replace *both* my Rokinon 12mm/2.0 *and* Sigma 16mm/1.4 with this lens. Tempting.
Nichols, thank you for that nice cup of weak tea. What's wrong? Don't want to miss out on that Sony money truck? Where was that comparison to the Sony 10-18? Which one is better? You just did the equivalent of this, "So who's better Chris or Jordan? Well, Dpreview has Chris and Jordan. Jordan is a great video performer and Chris is great for photography. Two great choices for viewers." Besides that being a load of crap, it doesn't tell a damn thing. C'mon Nichols! Choose a lens you muppet.
I want Fuji version of this lens.
Audio sound strange to anyone else?
While a welcom addition. i'd prefer other Tamron mirrorless lenses to go to Fuji first.
for example the 70-300 RXD which is much cheaper then the fuji version. Or the 17-70mm F2.8
The XF 10-24mm is a better lens then the Sony and has an update WR version too. (i have the original one)
Also in terms of price there isn't much in it. And optically both are stellar.
So it comes down to OIS and 1st party vs F2.8.
Getting Pissed on everyday I spit my drink out
Early!
i'm just gonna say i am very dissapointed with DPReview. not you two, but the page, why? well after buying a sony rx100 VA i realized when comparing jpgs to the ones of the V in the sample image gallery, that these guys tend to turn on noise reduction, which heavily hits image quality, detail and sharpness, i really had my doubts on the camera because at high isos it looked like freaking phone image quality- gladly the jpgs of jared's review on the iV hinted me more closely to the true quality of these cameras.
idk you, but i love a lot more to have a kinda grainy (i do have limits) image where i can still see detail, sharpness and quality than one that lacks noise, and those other three aswell, like, im getting a camera not to get the results as a phone right? then why even keep having a sample gallery with images that have applied noise reduction- it just looks as soft as a phone...
i really dont know if they keep doing this, but i really hope not in any case...
666 was not happening on my watch
Almost a dumpster vlog there for a while.
Yet another wide angle lense. I'm quite tired of the dozens of these lenses for Sony E mount. I wish there would be more telephoto lenses for Sony E mount other than the two I know and can't afford (Sony SEL 70-350mm and Tamron 70-300 mm).
Exactly! And the coming Tamron 18-300 doesn't make me excited much. We need an apsc version of 100-400 or hopefully a 100-500? Or better than both a 100-300 F4!!!
As a company, Tamron is dead to me.
You guys are so much fun to watch, but jeeeeezzzzzz...apsc sony...a 6400...damn...come on guys, this is minor league.
We always want the grand slam, not a bunt....sheesh...
As always, keep up the good work and keep'em flying....
Does it matter? The Sonys all have the same sensor anyway. (I say this as an annoyed a6500 user)
0:30 Chris Nichols, great photographer and youtuber but dreadful rapper
Beware of Tamron. The tests always seem amazing, but when you buy a Tamron, in the end, you are always disappointed. 7 blades for the diaphragm, in addition a ridiculous saving with a disappointing result.
What purpose for you need more than 7 blades in wide angle lens?
@@sergtrav star flares stopped down.
I stop watching after seeing “Made in chyna”…. I Will never buy camera lens made by the chinese !.
Literally 90% of everything you're using now was made in China lol. It's not the 80s or 90s anymore. Catch up with the times.
Good luck with your photography then. I hear basket weaving is fun.
That's racist
@@Iamtongue The Chinese are really happy about the comment because they view the Chynese as just a cheap imitation of themselves.
@@onlyonecannoli3952 😂😂😂
If budget is not an issue, Viltrox 13mm or Tamron 11-20 f2 for Sony ZVe10?🙂 just planning to use it for travel … mostly in low light.. cos I have Tamron 17-70 for daylight
