The Formatt 127mm Supermist Clear 2 Filter is both a diffusion filter and a good way to take the edge off of today's super sharp HD lenses. It is great for establishing a dreamy mood, yet, retains the overall sharpness of the image without making it look too soft. It lowers contrast by opening the shadows but does not spoil the overall look of the photo.

Formatt, a company with three generations of professional filter-making experience produces every filter to the highest technical standards. The finest materials, together with state of-the-art production technology have resulted in a standard of optical excellence unmatched anywhere else.

Q: 3. Does this lens work on Samsung NX1 camera or does it require any special adaptor to work?

Q: 4. with a Nikon D300 will this lense work automaticly with a tamaron 2x teleconverter or is it better with the Nikon 2X teleconverter

A: Unfortunately, the Tamron 16-300mm lens is not compatible with a teleconverter. Lenses that have a wide angle have a lens construction where the rear element sticks out far more than lenses that have a 50mm or longer focal length. For this reason, lenses that have focal lengths wider than 50mm are not typically compatible with teleconverters. Even if you could fit one on the back of the lens, you would risk seriously damaging the rear element of the lens and the teleconverter itself.

Q: 5. Is this lens compatible with the D5000?

A: I have a Nikon D5100 and it works well with it. but It does hunt for focus slowly at max zoom. One other odd problem is that when the built-in flash is used, the lens casts a shadow at max wide.

Q: 9. I currently have a Canon EF-S 18-135mm (f/3.5-5.6) IS STM lens and a Canon EF 70-300mm IS USM lens that I use on my 70D. Q1) Is this Tamron 16-300mm lens as sharp as my 18-135mm lens? If not, where would the difference be most noticeable?Q2) Since the Tamron 16-300mm is designed for APS-C cameras and my EF 70-300 is designed for full-frame cameras, will I get clearer images from the Tamron throughout the 70-300mm range? If not, where would the difference be most noticeable?

A: I have the same camera and lenses you have and I did buy the Tamron 16-300mm too - more for the convenience of traveling with one lens. While I am not super knowledgable (still learning!!), what I did notice is that when I took pictures with my Canon 70-300mm at the 300mm range, then took the exact picture in the exact spot with the Tamron lens, the picture taken with the Tamron lens is NOT as close. There is definitely a difference. As far as clarity, I do not see a differnce, but again, I'm not super knowledgable in being able to pick out the differences. I've had a Tamron lens in the past with a different camera and was very satisfied with the quality as well as the customer service and support when I encountered an issue. I'm keeping all three lenses - absolutely love the convenience of the 16-300mm range on the Tamron when wanting to travel light, but I still fall back to my Canon 18-135mm when taking pictures of the grandkids, and will continue to fall back to my Canon 70-300mm when I know I'm doing longer range shots only.

Q: 10. Will Tamron 16-300mm work for new Canon EOS 77D in live-view mode?

A: I tried the Tamron 16-300mm on my Sony a7RII with a Sony A-MOUNT TO E-MOUNT ADAPTOR(BH# SOLAEA3) and had serious issues with focusing. I returned the lens although I loved its range and it may have just been the adapter's problem. I settled for the more compatible Sony 24-240mm E-mount and am avoiding adapters in future. Will it work for the new Canon EOS 77D? You will not know until you try it. B&H are very good about returns if you are not happy with it.
