Tamron 28-75 F2.8 zoom lens

I haven't been happy with the kit lens on my Sony A7III. It's OK, but the sharpness needs to be improved. At high F-stops these are negligible at high F-stops (F16 and up), but at the lower F-stops it's a problem. This wouldn't be so bad if the widest aperture were decent, but at F5.6 -F4 it's rather slow.
The options are a Sony lens and a Tamron one. They're similar in speed and performance, but not cost.
Being economical I chose the less expensive one.
The lens is relatively heavy and a bit of a battery hog, but it is sharp - even wide open.

The sharpness is similar to my Sam Yang 85mm and much better than the kit lens
