Tamron 60mm on Sony A700 Samples

Unread post by sury »

Here are some images taken with Tamron 60mm f/2 I received this evening. I am amazed by the detail grabbed by A700 in the 3rd image. I was amazed at the details when I pixel peeped the first image in Picasa.

This one is a crop of an image taken from about 3 feet away. Look at the single strand of
hair over my daughter's right eye.

On A700, I am absolutely delighted. The focus is fast and especially with center point focus, it locks just like that.
BTW, how much the lens is costing you in NZ, if I may ask.

With best regards,
Sury

Dr. Harout,
Thank you. I am intending to post them. My daughter was pleased with the skin textures she saw.

Hi Sury, thanks for posting the test shots, and congrats on the new lens. (Also very usable on the A900 I see in the other thread.)
Nex 5, Nex 6 (IR), A7M2, A99 and a bunch of lenses.
