Tamron 15 30 Lens

Hey everyone, I'm professional photographer, Ian plant. And right now I'm in the beautiful Canadian Rockies, photographing with Tamron, it's 15 to 30 millimetre G2 lens. What I really love about the 15 to 30 millimetre lens, is it's ultra wide angle perspective. Shooting with a wide angle lens, forces you to see the world in a different way. When you zoom out to 15 millimetres, everything in the sea gets considerably smaller. So you gotta be relatively close to your background or working with a big background. And this is the perfect place for it, here in the Rockies 'cause the mountains are looming up in the background all the time. And it also means that you have to get a lot closer to your foreground. So anything that you're using to juxtapose, in a near far landscape composition for example, you have to get very close to that near object, to make sure it looks big enough prominent in the scene, so that, that visual juxtaposition with the background, works very effectively, to lead the viewer's eye, deeper into the composition. One thing I really love about Tamron's 15 to 30 millimetre lens is that, it's very sharp. So the image quality is exceptional. The bright, F2.8 aperture is great if you're doing low light or night photography, and you don't need a lot of depth of field, of course when I'm shooting landscapes, I'm usually stopping down to F11 or maybe even a little bit smaller, to make sure that everything from near to far in my composition, is perfectly sharp and in focus. Although I use a tripod for most of my landscape work for maximum stability, the Tamron 15 to 30 does feature vibration compensation, which is useful if you wanna take some quick shots, just handholding. The weather in the Canadian Rockies is notoriously fickle, but I have had a few lucky sunrises or great light was able to break through the clouds and the ability to go to 15 millimeters, and to capture that entire scene, including those giant clouds lighting up at sunrise in the morning, the beautiful scenery in the background, and a nice foreground that leads the eye deeper into the composition, that is very important for me to be able to do that. And the Tamron 15 to 30 millimetre lens, performed flawlessly. This has been an epic trip, and the ability to go wide with the Tamron 15 to 30 millimetre lens, has made all the difference for me. It has allowed me, to capture the true beauty, of the Canadian Rockies. I'm Ian Plant, and thanks for watching
