In this video, I take you in the field to film a basketball game with the Tamron 35-150mm f2-2.8 lens for Sony E mount. We discuss the performance of this versatile Tamron lens in detail as I film with it on my Sony FX30 for the entirety of the game. After reviewing the low light performance, build quality, autofocus, sharpness, flare control, and overall useability of the lens, we see if this 35-150mm f2-2.8 lens really can be the only lens in your kit for filming sports videography.
