Tamron 90mm f/2.8 Di
This Tamron lens is – according to the US website – known affectionately as the 'portrait macro'. Certainly 90mm is a lovely length for portraits, and even with a 1.5x magnification factor it offers a 135mm (equivalent) length with an APS-C sensor, which is still a great length for portraits.

Excellent lens for the money
This is an excellent lens for the money and when used on a APS-C camera yeilds great macros. On ebay be very careful and ask the buyer to verify the lens type. I would say over half the lenses on ebay are mis represented as to the lens type. Read more ...

An OK macro lens
This lens while a good lens is slightly over rated. I bought mine locally in Sydney about 5-months ago and am currently looking to replace it with either a Nikon 105 f2.8G ED VR macro or a Sigma 105 f2.8 OS HSM Ex lend. I am just not getting the sharpness everyone claims with the Tamron. Read more ...
