Tamron Zoom Shootout (28-75, 28-200, 35-150 EF, and 70-180)
35mm
35-150 UL, 28-200 UR, 28-75 LL
the picture of the grass is the extreme LL corner where the 28-200 handily wins in this particular part of the frame. it illustrates something interesting I found. The 28-75 and 35-150 beat the 28-200 in the very center of the foreground quite easily (not pictured due to file size limitation), but the 28-200 significantly improved in both LL and LR corners while the other two lenses significantly worsened moving into the corners. Over the rest of the image the 35-150 is definitely the overall winner, but not by much. In some places the 28-75 is slightly better and others it is definitely slightly worse, but the 28-200 does much, much better here than it did on my tripod infinity tests. It definitely still lags some at center and midframe, but it actually keeps up very competitively in the UL and UR corners. The 35-150 and 28-200 are still purple fringing in the corners quite a bit.
Neither the 28-200 or the 28-75 suffer from lack of lens stabilization here (the 35-150 has it), and they all range from pretty good to great

It lags a little at center and midframe, but not nearly as severely as it did in my infinity tests (reasonably close) and it actually keeps up very competitively in the UL and UR corners. The 35-150 and 28-200 are still purple fringing in the corners quite a bit.
