Cool "little" lens.

The exterior pics almost look like it should be extending "a bit more".
ZOMG @ the pincushion distortion though.

I finally own a lens that is highly recommended by PZ

You made me start counting ....
FF:
6 Canon EOS EF lenses, 2 Canon EOS RF lenses
MFT:
4 Olympus M. Zuikos, 2 Panasonic Lumix lenses and 1 Panasonic Leica lens
I am sure I have a couple more which, if tested would also get the HR treatment.
I feel rather spoilt right now ...
Kind regards, Wim

Yes you are! A whole warehouse with HR glass...
Multi coated...
If you have pix taken with your new setup please share. I remember you used to do that here and there.

Playing along, I checked mine, and there are several highly recommended as well: 2x Oly, 1x Sigma, 2x Pana / Pana Leica. Some are same lenses, probably. Suddenly I feel spoilt too. ;-)
Klaus, back to the Tamron and sports use case: how annoying would be AF micro adjustments mentioned in the text? Not present at 2,8 in continuos AF mode or just less noticable?

I have one: the Tamron 85/1.8. I almost thought the 16-35/4 IS also falls under this category, but no.

My photography web site had to be migrated to a new server several years ago, and there were more important things to be rebuilt first, plus work, so I find I am spending more time on buying and replacing stuff than actual photography of late, as in, the last few years. And the pandemic doesn't help either, especially being a member of a high risk group ....
Currntly I spend most, nay, all of my time on rebuilding my main web site with all of its add-ons after a major databse conversion and upgrade, where effectively none of the old add-ons are compatible with, and many no longer available. That has been going on since early Novemebr, and will last easily another 3 to 3 1/2 months before all is done.
Maybe I'll take up photography more intensely thereafter ...
My EOS R I bought because I had already sold my 5D II in 2018, and my daughter wanted me to do her wedding photograpy inAugust 2019, otherwise I would have waited a little longer still (waiting for the R5 essentially). OTOH, I still got a fair trade for my EF lenses I used for getting into RF lenses
