Tamron 90mm f/2.8 Di Macro Lens

By (the-digital-picture.com)

The Tamron 90mm f/2.8 Di Macro Lens is a popular short-telephoto macro lens - Popular because of its modest size, good image quality, decent AF (autofocus) and reasonable price

When I bought my first DSLR (Canon XTi), it took me some time to decide on what lens should I buy. First I did some research online and found out about this sweet lens. Compact, affordable and high performance. All of my photos are really good using this...

Affordable, high performance lens. Fast AF, compact size.

AF is quite noisy for me.
