Carl Zeiss Distagon T* 3.5/18 ZF review by Oleg Novikov
"...is a great optic and its performance is perfectly in line with what one expects from Carl Zeiss. The only gripe that I have is that it is a relatively slow lens but, even so, still has very strong vignetting wide–open (but then again, many ultra wide angle lenses have this quality)." |
Zeiss Distagon T 21mm f2.8 ZF.2 review by Oleg Novikov
"The lens is a spectacular optic and easily one of the best performers across various brands at this focal length. Its only real drawback is very strong vignetting at f/2.8, but then again many ultra wide angle lenses have this quality." |

Sigma 50mm f1.4 EX DG HSM review by Thom Hogan
"Final comments: this doesn't feel like one of Sigma's best efforts. Nowhere do they hit it out of the park with an attribute on this lens. It feels a bit old school in that respect: a prime where they paid some attention to the center but didn't really worry much about getting any of the other details optimized." |
Sigma 50mm f1.4 DG HSM review at UsedNikon
"Sigma has the finest 50mm auto focus prime on the market. It's not cheap at nearly 500.00, but this is a better lens than even Canon's 1.2 or Nikon's very good 50mm AF-S 1.4." |

"I have been really really really satisfied to that Sigma EX 150mm f2.8 macro lens! I haven't thought a single time that I replace it with something else. That kind of lens that would replace that Bugzilla in my camerabag does not exist at this time."

"Overall, this lens isn't a bad performer and will suit those looking either for a replacement upgrade to their standard 18-55mm kit lens, or a solid starter lens that covers the standard focal ranges." |

Tamron 28-300mm f3.5-5.6 XR Di LD VC review at UsedNikon
"On a D700 or D3 this lens is a smash. And it should be considering the 600 dollar price tag, which is pricey, especially for a 3rd party lens. The reward is a lens that will surprise most shooters with it's quality and versatility." |

Tamron SP 70-200mm f2.8 Macro review at ePhotozine
"For the price, this lens represents excellent value for money, producing images with superb resolution at shorter focal lengths and good build quality, all in a relatively lightweight package." |
My First Shoot with the Tamron 70-200mm f/2.8 by Scott Kelby
"Overall, I liked it. The lens feels surprisingly well built (especially for the money. Sometimes lenses in this price range can tend to have a ‘cheezy-plasticy’ feel, but this one didn’t at all), yet it also feels fairly lightweight, which I love." |
Tamron AF 70-300mm f4-5.6 Di LD Macro review at ePhotozine
"For a budget lens, the Tamron 70-300mm performs surprisingly well, producing images with excellent resolution at shorter focal lengths. The Macro feature is a useful addition, offering an introduction to close-up photography that should yield excellent results if used within its limitations." |

Tamron 90 and 180mm Macro review at UsedNikon
"Considering their range of use, these lenses are not cheap to buy, but they are wonderful tools. Having owned the 90 and now the 180, I'd suggest the 90 for DX cameras and the 180 for FX. Those wanting more working range would still prefer the 180mm on a DX camera. Or buy both. These are two stunning primes by any measure." |
| Tamron AF 180mm f/3.5 SP Di LD Macro review at Photozone |
Tamron SP AF 180mm f/3.5 Di LD (IF) Macro review at ePhotozine
"In testing, this lens has proved itself capable of excellent results especially when stopped down to f/5.6 or smaller. Those requiring the extra working distance this lens affords for their macro work will almost certainly be pleased with the performance of this lens, and at just over half the price of marque equivalents, it is definitely worthy of consideration." |

"The lens produces good enough clarity at optimum apertures for most people's needs and feels like it is built to last. At £481 though, I can't help but feel the price is too close the the manufacturer's own and other third-party fisheye offerings to represent a clear-cut winner when it comes to value for money." |

"Although this is not the highest performing lens tested, it may still appeal to those looking for a compact super-telephoto for travel as its compact size and light weight are certainly appealing features. It is priced keenly too, so may appeal to photographers after that extra bit of length who have to work to a budget." |

Breakthrough Teleconverter for Consumer D-SLR Lenses by David Cardinal
"Before I sing some of the praises of the new Kenko DGX converters I want to state a couple massive caveats up front. First and foremost, consumer and prosumer lenses aren’t built with the ultra-sharp optics required to get tack sharp images with a Teleconverter. So there is going to be some loss of sharpness with any Teleconverter for those lenses. But in many cases the tradeoff may be worth it if it is the only cost effective way you can reach the focal length you need." |

"So its made in Korea, who cares? For 300€ you get an excellent lens with the smoothest bokeh! Is it as good as the Nikkor AF 85mm f/1.4 or even the f/1.8. Personally, i like this Samyang better for its smooth bokeh and unbeatable price. Highly recommended!" |
