The iPhone 14 is better than its predecessor, but it's also more expensive and doesn't have many significant upgrades.
Even faster, with a better camera and more features.
Charger is optional. Lacks telephoto lens. Price has been increased.
More like an iPhone 13S. The generational upgrades for the iPhone 14 are limited to a few subtle changes. At the same time, however, the base price climbs to 800 USD, while the only true innovation happens inside the iPhone 14 Pro series.
excellent OLED display, dust- and waterproof, fast Wi-Fi, wide range of supported frequencies, great camera, very fast performance, good battery life
display limited to 60 Hz, charging rate limited to 20 watts, no macro lens, wide notch
Like the Sigma 100-400mm f/5-6.3 HSM DG OS Contemporary lens that came before it, the Tamron 100-400mm f/4.5-6.3 Di VC USD proves a compelling option for photographers keen on nature and wildlife photography looking for a budget 400mm lens.
Tamron has made an impressive and very capable telephoto zoom with the 100-400mm f/4.5-6.3 Di VC USD. Its size, build quality and performance suggests it will be more of a hit with amateurs and aspiring enthusiasts using APS-C DSLRs than with full-frame DSLR users.
Fast and quiet autofocus performance; Convenient size and weight for a lens of its pedigree; Effective Vibration Compensation (VC) system; Moisture-resistant construction
Tripod collar adds £109 to cost of lens; Produces heavy vignetting used with full-frame DSLRs; More expensive than its closest Sigma rival; Lens hood isn't complimentary to pull zooming
The Tamron 100-400mm F/4.5-6.3 Di VC USD is an excellent alternative to the equivalent lenses from Canon (EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM) and Nikon (Nikon 80-400mm f/4.5-5.6G ED VR), offering 90% of the performance at 50% of the price.
While it's a shame that picture and sound quality haven't been upgraded, the iPhone 13 was great in these regards and the iPhone 14 is, too Excellent display Admirable headphone performance Solid build quality No upgrades to picture or sound Familiar design Notch is still present
Apple's latest non-Pro iPhone is superb - it's just that it's strikingly similar to last year's effort.
Still an incredible smartphone, Brilliant battery life gets a bit better, Excellent camera system gets a bit better
Last year’s Pro hardware, Wireless charging slow by modern standards, No USB-C; it’s now well overdue
This first-edition 100-400mm performs well straight out of the blocks, packing real punch into a refreshingly lightweight build, and when it comes to outright image quality, the Tamron puts plenty of bigger, more expensive lenses in the shade. It’s a steal at the price.
Useful super-telephoto reach; Relatively compact and lightweight; Well built with good performance
Shorter reach than most super-tele zooms; Typically ‘slow’ aperture rating; Tripod mount ring not included
Perhaps the number of small victories scored by the Sigma in different testing categories is higher than the number of the respective victories of the Tamron. The Sigma’s MTFs are slightly bigger, it corrects lateral chromatic aberration and astigmatism in a better way, and its image stabilization...
casing of good quality,; excellent image quality in the frame centre; no matter what focal length you employ,; very good image quality on the edge of APS-C sensor,; sensible image quality on the edge of full frame,; lack of problems related to spherical aberration,; moderate lateral chromatic...
noticeable vignetting at longer focal lengths on full frame,; a bit too many flares and too noticeable loss of contrast while working against bright light.
Overall, the Tamron 100-400mm f/4.5-6.3 Di VC USD lens was a pleasure to use. I did need to adjust my shooting habits to handle this large optic, and my camera/lens/tripod adapter combo was not light of weight or short in size, but once I got past that I found that it lent itself to exploring new...
