We appreciate your understanding and wish to apologize for any inconvenience that might be caused. Not only is this in the info sheet that is sent with the lens, it is also on their web site for this lens.
When did you get your lens? Mine was sent last week. Sounds like they've changed their data sent with the lens. In the documentation that came with the lens I received mine in June , there's a section for VC Mechanism. Under that it has the following:. There's another section 'The VC may not be able to give full effect in the following cases:', and there is nothing about panning under that section. It doesn't appear that the documentation shipped with mine has been updated based on the service bulletin, which isn't surprising.
I guess I can throw the old documentation in the garbage, not that there's anything useful in there anyway! That service bulletin doesn't even make sense.. Why would VC be related to zoom range? It's likely they meant due to the maximum focal length, but then does that mean VC works fine at shorter focal lengths, and if so, where does it begin to have problems?
Anyway, it sounds like there are mixed results based on the few responses here. Like I said, I get better results with it on. What I could see being a significant issue is if you are taking a burst and the VC isn't settling down between shots, or if you don't give it that second to settle on the first shot.
Other cases where I'd guess it just isn't needed is if you are panning on a tripod with an appropriate head, using very fast shutter speeds, shooting subjects that move very erratically, etc. I can get blurred shots with VC on and panning, but if I shoot the same number of photos with and without VC, I definitely get better photos with VC on.
Maybe that's just due to the slower shutter speeds I often get stuck using even for BIF. Grab shots are your worst enemy, it does need a slight hesitation before pressing the shutter release fully.
I shoot with my VC on all the time as well. The statement regarding whether the VC is suitable or not suitable is dependent on when it was purchased. Mine originally came in January and the Tamron User Guide stated ok for panning. The literature on the latest versions says to turn it off if panning. Don't believe anyone one has talked about the difference between tripods and monopods in this thread.
In my experience, most lens manufacturers make a distinction between the two. Generally speaking, they advocate turning the VC off when on a tripod, but leaving it on when on a monopod. I assume this is because a monopod is less stable and therefore more similar to hand-held than a tripod. OK you got me on this one. But could someone out there answer this question for me then, if you will please.
I thought the use of VC in a Tamron lens was to get rid of camera shake. Should a person normally use VC when hand holding the Tamron mm lens, and then in turn have the VC off because stabilization is supposed to be also a reason for tripod and monopod use? I would think so,. No offense, as many others have asked the same question, but this isn't rocket science.
Just try it in different scenarios with the lenses you have with vibration control and see what the results are. With all my lenses, Nikon, Sigma, and Tamron, that have stabilization, I leave it on all the time!
I can only remember ever turning it off occasionally on my Nikon mm macro lens. In my experience, unless you are on a tripod that is unbelievably solid and heavy , you use a remote shutter, and possibly even mirror lock-up, you aren't on a stable enough platform that you won't gain something with vibration control Granted, with a 'normal' lens it doesn't take too fast of shutter speeds to negate what you might gain by the vc, but when you are talking about a mm lens on DX, you probably aren't stable enough to go without VC, unless you are on a bench with sandbags over the lens.
I carry a fairly light tripod with a ball-head that I find most flexible for moving quickly to get on birds. It's rare that I am photographing a bird that is totally stationary, and that gives me the time to lock the tripod head, use remote shutter, etc.
I got a note from Tamron Canada, that turning off the VC for "fast moving objects" applied in the mm range. I am not familiar with Tamron VC, but with Nikon 2. The VR II info, however, suggests it be turned off. Some recent shots of granddaughter were disappointing because of weird focus artifacts most noticeable in eyes, different from typical motion blur. I realized VR was on, turned it off, and artifacts disappear. To me this is indication that VR on tripod is detrimental to IQ with many lenses.
Manual says VC is fine on a tripod, but the later addition notes that you can get bad effects when panning. So I went out and actually tested this. On a still object, I couldn't notice the difference between VC on and VC off when locked down on a pretty darn sturdy tripod. The only benefit I saw to leaving VC on was that I wouldn't have to remember to turn it on again once I started running and gunning once more which I inevitably do until I actually look at the screen.
Perhaps with a flimsier tripod setup, the VC would add more value. I've started to use a monopod coincident with getting this beast , and I find in those instances that VC improves steadiness significantly. I am assuming that if I try a fast-moving pan, the VC will throw a hiccup, although I didn't specifically test this. A question I have in my mind now is whether or not panning hand held will also be problematic at mm.
I'm not even sure how I'd begin to test that. Interestingly, the latest version I presume on the Tamron site, which you can find here , has had the "Taking panning shots It now says "The VC may not be able to give full effect The lastest manual see above actually now, in the alert in the same section, says "Turn the VC switch off when using tripod".
The manual I have "in print" here has the same wording. It seems to be dated "", and came with the Nikon version, so I guess they have updated the manual also in print.
Solid lines show performance in the sagittal radial direction while dotted lines indicate performance in the meridional circumferential direction. When sharp lenses capable of delivering uniform optical performance over the entire image field are tested, MTF charts show curves plotted in good balance. Performance characteristics of photographic lenses cannot be expressed with only MTF charts.
There are other factors that are expressed in different methods, such as taste of softness and degrees of compensation of various aberrations. But you can use MTF charts as a scale to measure lens performance.
Catalogs Find a Dealer Photo Gallery. Super Performance. The large-aperture and excellent optical performance that this lens offers is ideal for low-light photography and enriched creative picture composition possibilities. The new lens delivers pin sharp results and remarkable contrasts throughout the entire focal length range. When changing the focal length, focusing is lost. The lens is not parfocal. Image quality is very good overall, matched by top build quality that combines sturdy barrel parts with a metal mounting plate.

Canon IS is better and usually you can't tell, especially with Mode 2 for panning - laterally moving objects like athletes.
Preview 8 hours ago Three separate VC modes are also available to suit various styles of shooting: Mode 1 is a balanced setting for general use, and promotes both a stabilized viewfinder image and stabilized results; Mode 2 is designed exclusively for panning movements; and Mode 3 is optimized to stabilize only during capture without stabilizing the viewfinder image.
SP mm G2 has three types of VC modes. The standard mode that strikes a great balance between the stability of the viewfinder image and the stabilization effects. Exclusively used for panning. Prioritizes the stabilization of the captured images and forgoes the stabilization of the viewfinder image. The Tamron offers three modes: Mode 1 is standard stabilization, mode 2 is specifically for panning, mode 3 maximizes viewfinder stabilization for easier framing.
Manual-focus override is by simply turning the dedicated focus ring. The mechanism uses a three- coil system to electromagnetically drive the lens element that compensates for vibration, which glides smoothly on three balls with little friction.
