Magestic landscapes and portraits of Gran Canaria by Philip Ruopp with TAMRON 11-20mm F2.8 (Model B060) for FUJIFILM X-mount
For FUJIFILM X-mount
The 11-20mm F/2.8 Di III-A RXD (Model B060) is a large-aperture ultra wide-angle zoom lens. It's small and light weight with a good camera balance. The 11-20mm F2.8 makes it an ideal ultra-wide-angle zoom lens for daily use. The MOD (Minimum Object Distance) at the wide-angle side is 0.15 m, allowing you to enjoy the world of wide-angle macro shooting.
As a photographer, I had the incredible opportunity to test the TAMRON 11-20mm F/2.8 Di III-A RXD (Model B060) lens with my FUJIFILM X-T4 APS-C camera in Gran Canaria, and I must say that it exceeded my expectations. This ultra wide-angle zoom lens features a constant aperture of F2.8, making it perfect for capturing stunning perspectives and unique views in a variety of situations.
One aspect that really impressed me was its lightweight and compact design, which made it easy to carry around and have ready for any shot. This lens proved to be perfect for dynamic gimbal video shooting, allowing me to capture smooth, high-quality footage.
The optical elements provided a well-corrected, sharp and detailed image, while the lens' MOD (Minimum Object Distance) allowed for spectacular close-ups I never thought possible. The RXD (Rapid-eXtra-silent stepping Drive) autofocus motor kept the subject in focus precisely and quickly, while remaining virtually silent and avoiding any disturbing operating noise during video recording.
Exploring the fascinating world of wide-angle macro photography with this lens was a real pleasure. The exaggerated size gradients and dramatic depth effect brought a unique perspective to my images, while the shallow depth of field at F2.8 allowed me to creatively highlight important parts of the composition through the use of sharpness and bokeh.
In summary, the TAMRON 11-20mm F/2.8 Di III-A RXD lens provided me with an amazing photographic experience in Gran Canaria. Its compact design, stunning image quality and innovative features allowed me to capture the beauty of the world in a way I had never seen before. I highly recommend this lens to anyone who wants to improve their photography and explore new creative horizons.
Philip Ruopp
The sports, outdoor and travel photographer is on the move halfway through the year. Since 2011 he has travelled through fifty countries - from Greenland to Hawaii - with his camera, mostly on behalf of renowned outdoor manufacturers and together with extreme athletes. For the first eight years of his professional career, Ruopp spent most of his time in the studio, where he skillfully staged products for various manufacturers. Since then, technical aspects have been rather secondary to him and only a means to an end. He therefore always uses equipment he can absolutely rely on and prefers to concentrate on catching the right moment with the recording. With his pictures he tells stories that later bring the special atmosphere back to life.
