It also is fun to make fun of the not exact numbers used to claim very exact outcomes. Don't YOU, get it? Asking about 1.53x crop was in good fun too. :lol: Tamron 18-400mm f/3.5-6.3 VC coming ... - Rover - 06-20-2017 Quote:He's applying for a position in da test-lab ^_^The only position I can probably apply to is that of a tripod.

Tamron 18-400mm f/3.5-6.3 VC coming ... - Klaus - 06-20-2017 Just to spoil your math ... it is HIGHLY unlikely that this thing is a 18-400mm lens. On paper, yes, in the real life it's probably more like 19-370mm or so. The manufacturers are ... ummm .. generous ... when it comes to rounding errors.

Yep, but I don't know if being a tripod is physical flagrant boasting , or just a lack of career ambition !

I was just about to measure the µm of the used sensor surface to bring finally some accurate dimensions in this otherwise highly unscientific discussion. How can one live with only one decimal behind a comma? Tamron 18-400mm f/3.5-6.3 VC coming ... - JJ_SO - 06-20-2017 Quote:The only position I can probably apply to is that of a tripod.

But if PZ is hiring... I can work for food. Or for the thrill of handling lenses. Unfortunately, most of what I can realistically procure around here has already been tested (though I'm fairly sure a test of the Canon 24-85 on a 5DSR is what the public is anxiously awaiting...)

Probably at MFD more like a 18-150mm lens. Tamron 18-400mm f/3.5-6.3 VC coming ... - Brightcolours - 06-21-2017 Yep, focus breathing FOV widening madness. MFD: 45cm. Max. magnification: 0.29x. That is what my 70-200mm f4 does at about 1 meter. So that would make this lens less than 100mm at MFD. |
