I have a 20MM lens that I discovered is just too wide. This lens finds the Goldilocks spot between wide enough but not too wide. Excellent for landscape (as you would expect) and works well for indoor architecture and family group shots. Has plastic body but that means that it is more light weight than you would expect and has otherwise good build quality. I give it a Two Thumbs Up.

This is a good little lens, but I must add: for the money.The Tamron Di III 24mm lens is lightweight, versatile, reasonably sharp and inexpensive. There appears to be a rubber or silicone gasket on the lens mount for weather resistance. It is also macro capable to 1:2. For folks on a budget, I expect these little lenses to be a valuable asset.Barrel distortion and vignetting is pronounced and is on a par with, and perhaps a little worse than, that on the Sony FE 28mm F2. In fact, when the Sony Fe 28mm lens profile is selected in LR CC Classic for lens adjustment (a profile for the Sony e-mount Tamron 20mm, 24, and 35mm is not yet available), one obtains a pretty decent correction.

The lens is sharp enough, but at F2.8, I noticed somesoftness in the corners, which improves at F5.6. I did not observe much, if at all, lateral CA, but I did not try hard to induce it. Autofocus is sluggish and there is no switch to easily change between manual focus and auto. Bokeh is okay but the heptagonal shape of the iris diaphragm is noticeable in the specular highlights and sunstars are fair to good at f16 and f22, respectively. The build is plasticky, but quite decent and lens information is printed, not engraved, but then again, the lens is very light weight and the build is sufficient for a lens of this price.Overall, this is a nice little lens, considering the $350 asking price, and will be enjoyed especially by those people, like me, who like to take close up images of subjects in an environmental context, instead of the background being almost completely blurred out. It will make a great travel lens owing to its lightweight construction and versatility, but otherwise, I doubt this lens will replace my Loxia 21mm lens for landscapes or architectural photography. After my experience with the Tamron Di III 24mm, I doubt that I’ll purchase the 35mm or 20mm versions because I have better alternatives. I still plant to purchase the Sony FE 24mm F/1.4 GM lens next year, but this nifty little Tamron 24mm will always be very useful for my travel and shooting low angle wide angle close up shots.

I only shoot infrared digital with converted cameras, so it's hard to find lenses that don't exhibit some kind of hotspot. Some are worse than others, and there are none that are hotspot-free.Along came this Tamron, and I'm blown away by the sharpness, contrast, weight and handling of this lens. And it shows no hotspots at any aperture.I'm a fan of this lens series now and will be getting more of them as budget permits. They're excellent lenses and a great value.
This lens has been great to shoot on, it?s sharp lightweight and a GREAT PRICE!!! The one thing that I don?t like as much is that it?s a little loud when using autofocus in video. I don?t mind the noise in photography but video could be an issue for the internal or on camera mounted mic to pick up. Either way I would still recommend it for anyone looking for a great 24mm Prime.
Been wanting/needing a 24mm for a while for architectural purposes, and with my budget, this inexpensive Tamron option seemed good. I was between this and the Samyang, but have been unimpressed with their 18mm ff option. Strangely, Samyang's crop sensor lenses are much better at similar prices.FYI, this lens is NOT naturally suited for architectural work, as it is not aspherically corrected at all. The saving graces for me, are that it is sharp all the way to the corners, and that I can use it on my Sony A7r3. Because the resolution is still decent after the more than 20 points of distortion correction it needs in camera raw, the images are usable. Just realize that you are going to lose quite a bit of resolution after fixing the images from this lens. Shooting ...

Just realize that you are going to lose quite a bit of resolution after fixing the images from this lens. Shooting with in-camera distortion correction in the Sony is a necessity for framing things up right.That sharpness, and less of a need for distortion correction for landscapes, makes it nice for shooting in the wild. I haven't used it for a proper video, yet, but it seems it will be good enough for basic work. It is a little slow to focus (doesn't hunt) in video mode, and the focus breathing is pretty considerable. Again, use distortion correction.For the price on sale for a sharp full frame lens, I'd say it's worth it.
I really enjoy this lens. It is light to carry and I have found this to be an excellent lens. The quality of the photos are sharp. I like the fact you can get up very close to your subject if you want (about 5 inches) and the background is a nice soft blur so your subject really pops. I use this lens on a Sony A6000 so the field of view is 36mm which is great for street photography and use as a walk around lens. It is a versatile lens that I allows me to get a variety of photos when walking around. Highly recommend this lens.
I just got this lens and have used it on both my a7iii and my a6400. It is very sharp on the a7iii and seems equally sharp on the a6400. The half-macro (1:2) capability is particularly nice to have as a bonus, and on the a6400 the extra 1.5 reach gives a 3:4 full-frame macro equivalent. It is also super light and quite at home on the a6400. . All for an incredibly low price. MI ahve two disappointments: (1) it is a slightly cheaper feeling than tamron's other lens (I own the 28-200mm and the 17-70mm in comparison) but the other lenses are heavier and that might be coming into my subjective sense of build quality. (2) focusing moves the front element back and forward within the lens body -- I hadn't realized this. This movement might make it more likely that the lens ...

Can't complain about the value, though, at $200 during the current Tamron sale.
This is a brilliant lens with a very affordable price tag. Light, small, easy to carry around even as a backup lens. I've done some test with this lens on my A7Rii.Pro:- sharp, might be the sharpest 24mm I've seen and used so far- light, small- limited CA and manageable distortion- bokeh is nicer than I expected- In super APS-C mode you get a 35mm equivalent still with excellent sharpness if on a 42MP bodyCon:- Loud AF breath- Hard to find AF when shooting against light (not specific to this lens but a typical issue)Overall I really like this lens, as a travel or street photography lens. This lens can get good use for macro as well but I barely shoot macro. The only big issue is the AF breath. I shoot mostly still so the AF breath is not an issue but if ...

I love coming across a lens that checks all the boxes: the Tamron 20mm is compact, lightweight, produces excellent image quality, and is inexpensive. Pay attention, Sony!Specifically, the Tamron 20mm renders sharp edges on lettering and other straight lines, colors are true and, unlike other Sony lenses, do not need an added boost. Brightness and contrast are also true. Barrel distortion is mostly absent, but of course you can force it if desired. There is good dynamic range for pulling details out of shadows.Close-ups ? as close as 4 inches! This lens will save some people the cost of a macro lens.Night shots are similarly good. Some single light points produce pleasing starbursts, but larger or complex lights smear out in a way I find unpleasant.I ...
