10/28/2022 0 Comments Tamron 35mm 1.4![]() There are aspheric elements and anomalous partial dispersion glass is used. Optical construction is 14 elements in 11 groups. This represents a maximum magnification of 1:4.6. ![]() #TAMRON 35MM 1.4 FULL#Focusing is down to 30cm, a fairly standard distance for a full frame 35mm lens. The front element does not rotate, making the use of polarisers easier. The whole of the lens barrel turns to operate the internal focusing, which in effect makes for an enormous focusing ring, part of which is rubberised. Previously I have commented that the rubberised finish on some Zeiss lenses was somewhat prone to picking up specks of dust, but this lens does not seem to have that same problem. The balance is excellent, albeit with quite a hefty weight and size to carry around. The lens sits very well on the Canon EOS 5DS R used for this review. Although filters can be fitted, such is the potential quality of the glass that I would generally only use the lens hood, which is generously sized and should offer excellent shielding of the front element. Filter size is a reasonable 72mm, not too bad in terms of cost. The whole lens is dust and moisture protected. The lens is T* coated, suppressing internal reflections and flare. A solid metal lens hood is also provided and this bayonets into place with a smoothness that speaks volumes for the precision of the engineering. The lens itself is metal, heavy at 1174g (Nikon) or 1103g (Canon) and also very large for a 35mm optic. ![]() The packaging itself gives us the impression that we have a high quality, solid product, minimalistic in design but beautifully made, including very high-quality dense foam that protects the lens in transit, the packaging encourages confidence right from the start.
