Ranking The Biggest Camera Lens Brands From Worst To Best
By MELISSA PERENSON
8. Tamron
Tamron offers lenses across a wide range of camera mounts across the DSLR and mirrorless markets, including Sony E, Fujifilm X, Micro Four Thirds, and Canon EF
The company has a history of offering more affordable versions of lenses made by OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and currently offers 28 lens models available on its site.
OM System has lenses across wide-angle, standard, and telephoto zoom, and prime focal lengths. The company lists about 30 lenses on its site, all using the Micro Four Thirds mount.
Sony's lineup of lenses covers a range of scenarios, and it has several for sports, including the FE 85mm f/1.4, the 135mm f/1.8, and a more basic 35mm f/1.4 full-frame lens.
Panasonic's Lumix cameras use the L-mount system. Since Leica and Sigma also use the L-mount, it means that Panasonic camera owners have additional flexibility.
The lineup lacks some common options, like a 300mm f/2.8 lens, but those may not be necessary considering Panasonic's bodies aren't synonymous with sports photography.
Fujifilm has two lines of camera lenses. At the high end, the company's GFX mirrorless system forges ahead by making medium-format bodies with their large 55mm sensor.
Below the GFX system are Fujifilm's compact APS-C cameras, like the Fujifilm X-T5. Together, Fujifilm currently offers 17 G-mount lenses and 37 X-mount lenses.
