You are very welcome! Thank you for watching the review. You won’t regret it, such a great lens!

Great review, I bought this lens a year ago for my Nikon. I rely on my 85 f1.4 90% of the time. I really needed to see this review in order to see how much more I can be doing with this lens. My results have been good but I definitely need to bring it out more. I do many outdoor events and my 85 lets me stand back a little and get my shot. You're going to make me get a little closer and get a whole new perspective. I appreciate your examples throughout your video. Many SOLID examples given showing the possibilities of this lens. Thanks again. And you are correct ... great bang for the buck.

Nice love seeing the follow up shots at the end! gotta raise my game!

My man! Thank you so much!

hey Scott... really good review... and even better images, I'd say... I'd just like to hear if you had experience with other 35mm lenses on your current camera setup. my main question is regarding af speed? i already have rf 35mm 1.8, and I found it to be quicker than sigma 35mm 1.4 adapted but still not happy with af speed... I'd go with any option that is quicker to focus but not sure if there is any besides Canon's own 35mm 1.4L II... in the end I will go with that one as there is still no news about release date of fast 35mm rf... so can you comment on af speed of tamron vs any other 35mm for your current setup? best regards.

love that scent!! great video.

Really enjoyed your review, Scott! Great pics, too! I recently picked up the Tamron 35mm 1.4 for my Canon EOS R. I have my first HS Senior Portrait Shoot with this next week, and I can't wait! Thanks for your no nonsense detail sharing what is most important to you. I have to admit that for a long time, I have been a 85, 50, 135 impassioned shooter, but I can see how the "story-telling" aspect of subject AND environment is such a strong possibility with 35. Can't wait to experience this in my shooting. All My Best, Scott!

Agreed, best 35 in the game!

I am so glad I found this video because I would like to share that I possess this incredible lens alongside my 5dsr and I think there is no better combo till date. They make a perfect couple and this lens is Exquisite. I am so glad at the moment of my purchase I didn't go with a 24-70 zoom as this idea just came to me right in time luckily. Due to the nature of 5dsr, i can use this lens for 3 focal lengths, 35 45, and 56 and that makes total f sense. I have an odd selection of lenses right according to my usage which sounds quirky to people but fits with my usage in a way that I am proud of it and having this lens in it is a real booster.

Hi Scott...! Greetings from Jakarta. Insightful video and outstanding pics, you have my subs...! I am R6 shooter and wanna ask whether this lens needs to be calibrated (firmware updates) prior to adapting it to R6? And may I know how's this lens compare to Tamron SP 35mm F1.8, Native Canon RF 35mm F1.8 and Sigma Art 35mm F1.4? Have you ever tried and compared those lenses? Thanks!

@scottstocktonphotography

Greetings!! Thank you for tuning in and for the sub! This lens does not need to be calibrated prior to being adapted to your r6. I had the sigma art 1.4 before getting the Tamron, and for me the Tamron is much faster to acquire focus, so I sold the sigma version for this one. I haven’t tried the rf 35 1.8. I imagine it might be fractionally faster, but I haven’t had any speed issues with the Tamron, to want to explore giving up 1.4 to go to 1.8. I feel like the Tamron is the winner here

Hi Scott. Have you had the opportunity to test with fast moving subjects and in low light? For example sports in the gym. Should I be concerned about its autofocus tracking speed?

Thank you for watching. The fastest things I’ve shot with this has been a bouquet toss. The AF for that was perfectly fine, but I haven’t shot sports with it.

I own the older Tamron 35mm f/1.8 - I use it on my 5D mk II and on my EOS R and it has been my favouirte lens since years.

The quality of Tamron is truly off the charts! I’ve been using them forever, back in my dslr days and now with mirrorless. Amazing quality and best prices 🔥

Nice video - having the canons as well and sold the canon ef 35 mm 1.4 L II a while ago I kinda miss the focal length and this could be a nice replacement even though other KZreadr found this a little too heavy and front balanced, but the quality seems pretty good 👌 Are you using special presets from somewhere or your own…? Like the look a lot cheers

It is definitely heavier than the canon version. That being said, I have way heavier glass with the 50 1.2 and my 70-200, so it’s weight doesn’t bother me that bad. I have my own presets that I use. That being said I’ve been using Imagine ai to edit most of my wedding pictures now. Ever used them?

Thank you for this review. I own the SP 85mm f1.8 and 45mm f1.8 and think that the SP line of primes of Tamron kind of flew under the radar despite the fact that they perform brilliantly. It kind of makes up however for more unique photos as these lenses do truly deliver unique results. I especially love my 45mm f1.8 and wouldn't trade it for the world! Everyon e is so busy with the latest 2000+ dollars canon L series lenses releases and dismiss the much cheaper and truly capable options from 3rd party manufacturers.

I agree with you completely! And the performance of this lens and the other Tamron sp lenses, is amazing, even being adapted. I want to get the 85 1.8 next as my main 85. I’ve heard great things about the 45 as well!

@ralphsaad8637

@scottstocktonphotography I think the 45mm is not perfect in every way, the AF speed is just adequate and there can be some moderate amounts of chromatic aberrations at times. But the quality of bokeh is truly special all while being very sharp and having incredible minimum focus distance (29cm vs 45-50cm for most 50mm lenses). It is also built like a tank and produces just beautiful results overall, making it my favorite lens ever and I have owned nearly 10 lenses so far, some being primes and some zooms. The 85mm is just hard to fault in any way and delivers consistently great results no matter what you throw at it.

@scottstocktonphotography I am sure you will love it! Small note: I have found that it's actually a bit longer than 85mm (somewhere between 87-88mm). So while there are wider aperture 85mm lenses available, it kind of makes up for it by being a bit longer and thus providing some extra compression and separation to make it competitive with f1.4 options. The sigma 85mm art (original) was for instance measured to be around 82-83mm do a bit shorter.

Coming back to this review and I've now acquired this lens used, in perfecr shape, for 500$. Using it became gradually a revelation in what a good quality lens can produce. Absolutely love it and it is everything you said and more. You're not overselling it.

I think the Sony 35mm 1.4 GM is the best 35mm out there. The size is also nice.
