Since the lens has no way of detecting tripod use, it will continue to try to stabilize the lens, resulting in blurry images. First of all, if you are planning to use the lens on a tripod, always make sure to turn vibration compensation (VC switch on the lens) off. Although it worked out quite well for us outdoors when shooting hand-held in low-light situations, there are a few important things you will need to keep in mind. The Tamron SP 90mm f/2.8 Macro comes with optical image stabilization, which is rated at 3.5 stops of compensation. Vibration Compensation / Image Stabilization The lens was running the latest firmware (we made sure to check using the Tap-in Console), and all the contacts were clean. Although turning the camera off and on often fixes the issue, it is an annoying problem that we’ve encountered on more than one occasion. However, when using it with the FTZ adapter on the Nikon Z7, the lens occasionally fails to read, going back and forth before eventually erroring out. We primarily used this lens on the Nikon D780 DSLR and it worked out quite well in the field, as expected. Overall, the build quality and handling of the lens is excellent. It snaps easily on the lens and stays pretty snug, without any noticeable play. The HF017 hood is quite large and bulky, so it should do a good job in blocking light rays from reaching the front element (the inner part of the hood is threaded to reduce reflections). The 62mm filter thread is plastic, similar to what we see on many other enthusiast and pro-grade lenses out there, including ones from Nikon. The front element is fairly close to the filter thread, so cleaning it should be very easy. The Tamron SP 90mm f/1.8 Di VC USD is weather-sealed, which makes it a great candidate for outdoor photography. The rear of the lens has a rubber gasket on the mount, which helps protect the camera from dust and debris. There are a total of three switches on the side – one for image stabilization (VC On / Off), one for focusing (AF / MF) and one for adjusting the focusing distance (0.5m to ∞ and 0.3m-0.5m).
There is a glass element on the rear side of the lens to protect the internals, and it does not move in and out as you move the focus ring.

As you get to the end of the focusing range on either side, there is a noticeable stop, but it is not a hard stop like on some older manual focus lenses – the ring continues to rotate.

It is clear that Tamron built the lens to last, even with a heavy amount of field use. The bottom of the lens has a “Made in Japan” stamp, and there is another “Designed in Japan” white label right next to it. It features a sturdy metal lens barrel and a metal mount, and the only plastic parts of the lens are the very front of the lens barrel, as well as the plastic switches on the side of the lens. Tamron has done a great job with the build quality of the SP 90mm f/2.8 Macro, which feels like a pro-grade lens. Vibration Compensation (Image Stabilization): Yesĭetailed specifications for the lens, along with MTF charts and other useful data for the Tamron SP 90mm f/2.8 Di Macro VC USD can be found in our lens database.Mount Type: Canon EF, Nikon F and Sony A.Let’s take a look at the lens in more detail. The front element is coated with fluorine coating to repel water and smudges for easier cleaning of the lens, making it an excellent candidate for shooting outdoors. Similar to its other recent siblings, it features a high-speed ultrasonic silent drive (USD) autofocus motor, BBAR + eBAND coating, and moisture-resistant design. With its optical design comprised of 14 elements in 11 groups (two of which are extra-low dispersion, and one low-dispersion glass element), it is an optically impressive lens that is able to deliver sharp images with very high levels of contrast. Thanks to its 1:1 reproduction ratio, updated optical formula, latest optical coatings, optical image stabilization, a solid build, as well as a very reasonable price of $649, the SP 90mm f/2.8 Macro is an excellent third-party alternative to branded lenses. Since its announcement in August of 2016, the Tamron SP 90mm f/2.8 Di Macro 1:1 VC USD has been a popular macro lens for Canon EF, Nikon F, and Sony A-mount cameras.
