I have the 28-75 and 70-180 and and one of Tamron's best features is every lens in the deal above uses a 67mm filter size so I don't have to invest in multiple sizes of filters.

Also, here are the lowest reputable prices I could find to compare them to online

Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 Di III VXD G2 Lens

Amazon $699
Greentoe $549

Tamron 28-200mm f/2.8-5.6 Di III RXD Lens

BB, Amazon, B&H, etc $799
Greentoe $549

Tamron 50-300mm f/4.5-6.3 Di III VC VXD Lens

B&H $799
Greentoe $599

Tamron 17-28mm f/2.8 Di III RXD Lens

That 28-200mm is an unknown gem. I have a bunch of fast primes and I never expected this to be my most used lens. Sharp almost edge to edge, no aberrations and virtually no focus breathing for video. I'm still surprised how such optically good lens exist for an all in one zoom and how it is rarely known and the price of it. I paid $800, having used it a lot I would've happily pay $2000+ since there is nothing competing in its space. At $550 its a steal.

Edit: And great AF by the way. Silent and fast.
Only missing thing is the optical stabilization in lens but for a lens with 7x zoom range, that would have ballooned the size/weigh and price. This things weights less than standard zooms. Build quality is fine, nothing to brag, nothing to complain. It is weather resistant.

Yeah, this is my favorite lens. My copy is tack sharp across the frame at all focal lengths.

Thanks op, grabbed the 28-200. Probably the best superzoom lens for the platform, hard to beat for an all-in-one.

Bad deal. Stay away. I ordered 28-85 G2 but received G1. Fraud. No way to return it or exchange it on the web site.

That's weird :/ Did you reach out to the seller? What did they say? The listing in multiple places says it's the G2 model.

The invoice comes from the authorized dealer with phone number, website, etc. You should be able to call them/email them and either figure out something.

I found a company name and a phone number. I will call today. I will update this post later with any new info.

I have the 50-400 and I would not want to travel with it. Too big and heavy for travel imo
I've taken my 35-150 with me on flights in my "personal item." Weight wise the 50-400 is about the same and I get 400mm on the long end. The plus for me is I can get a tripod/foot collar for it so the weight is on that vs the mount when I'm walking around. A little piece of mind for me, especially if I'm a trail. Both are still lighter than the 150-500mm I use for wildlife. Which is lighter still vs Sony's newly announced 400-800mm that I'll probably end up getting one day. 150-500mm & the 400-800 will probably never come with me on a flight as I only do personal carry ons. The 50-400 would be good for me when I travel internationally. Gives me more reach vs my 28-200. I always seem to need more zoom a lot more often than I do less.

You don't do returns to Greentoe. They're just the middle man, you do returns via the actual retailer that sent you the lens.

I already have the Sony FE 20mm F/1.8 G SEL20F18G
A Tamron 28-77mm F/2.8 Di III VXD G2 from Greentoe $599
Anyone has experience with the Tamron 70-180mm f/2.8 Di III VC VXD G2 and would recommend for the Sony A7C.

I own the 28-75mm. Great lens. I bought it for $899 in 2021. $549 is a great price for it brand new. Great for portraits.

Can anyone speak to the picture quality of the Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 ? I still have my kit lens for that focal length. I was planning to upgrade only when I could afford a Sony G-Master series lens (maybe used). However I read one reviewer who claimed this Tamron could compete for tack-sharp quality as the G-series (likely not Master) glass, but I don't see that comparison everywhere.

I'm not convinced yet. Any advice?
