    Purchased a few days ago for the a74. The build quality is mediocre, which is why it is very lightweight. The sharpness from 17 to 50 at f5.6 performs exceptionally well, 100% in the center and 90% in the corners. At f4, it is sharp in the center but a bit soft in the corners, which is understandable with such a wide aperture. Distortion is noticeable at 17 (not prohibitive if you are stable and not making left-right movements), but it's okay at 20. It is an ideal lens for video, you can keep it permanently on the camera and if you want a little telephoto, you can crop the sensor and get a 75mm equivalent. 4 stars for the type c port, which lacks any protective rubber, allowing dust and water to enter. You have to put some tape to protect it. A huge plus is the 5-year warranty provided by Tamron. It is worth the money, as it covers a range of 17 to 50, allowing you to do almost everything. For people shooting wedding and baptism videos, it is amazing, as it covers all the needs. And for baptism in a pool, you won't lose the baby if you need to get close.
