Crystal clear, tack sharp images and solid build.

the images become blurry and any further they are atrocious

It's not too heavy and most important, the images on my D7100 are gorgeous

No mater how sturdy your tripod, a battery grip mount on the camera with this lens focused all the way out can be very shaky, and the shutter alone can blur the image

Filming orchids yesterday and the images were exceptional - even in low light.

Razor sharp, and excellent images

Sharp images, contrasty and average auto focus speed

Fast focus, sharp images, and lightweight

Is the real mvp in macro lenses, extremely sharp images at 1:1

I was pleasantly surprised at its ability to record incredible portrait images

Beautiful images

When you're up extremely close, the smallest shake can blur your image

Autofocus to get it in focus and then pull the focus ring in towards you to then manual focus into that razor sharp image

The macro is true 1:1, with crisp, clear images

Pros: sharp & crisp images.

She has gotten fabulous macro images of insects that even the entomologists love.

I have yet to use it in great lighting but have managed to get some very good images

In fact a friend that saw my images was so impressed that he bought one also !!

It takes very sharp images without any noticeable defects or distortion

For portraits, I was getting beautiful images with my nikkor 50mm & 135mm prime, both great lenses, but this 100mm prime is a little sharper with better color saturation, and so much cheaper than the nikkor 85mm

The images it produces are razor-sharp, with good color and contrast, whether the subject is a bug a few inches away or distant buildings

Crisp, clear magnificent images filled with all the detail one can imagine

I love to shoot macro and this lens can give me great images

f/3.2 or f/3.5 just for a sharper image.

Super sharp macro lens, good build and excellent image quality

Really, really sharp images plus a great value !

Another really sharp image

It has a nice bokeh and the images are razer sharp

After renting the Nikkor 105 VR and testing the Tamron 90mm, I realized that each of these lenses can make superb close up images.

I use it with my Nikon D90 and the images are sharp!

There's no image stabilization either, not a big issue for macro, but for normal shots, 150mm is long with out VR.You could spend all you money on name brand lenses, and only have one or two

This is a full-frame 100 mm macro lens, and the images are very crisp

But I felt like I didn't want to have to engineer multiple workarounds to get useable images every single time, especially since I don't need to do this for my other lenses

tack sharp images and increidble definition of details.when used for culinary photography: this lens is the king of all macro

It produces very sharp images and great Bokeh

Telephoto shots were encouraging, but not quite as sharp as I'd expected

As good as, if not better than, the Nikon equivalent... and less than half the price.

At times I think it is as sharp or even sharper than the acclaimed Nikon 85mm 1.8G
