I can remember as the worst lens that I had, the voigtlander 1080 mm an ugly monster formed by :
Any voigtlander SRL camera with
135/4 super dinarex
40,5 mm to 27 mm adapter
8 x 30 zeiss
(8 x 135 mm = 1080 mm).
Ugly circular image of 12 mm of radio.
You could did a 400 mm in this form too. (normal 50 mm plus adapter plus 8 x 30)
Think that in contaflex (only the 400 mm -50 mm plus 8 x 30-) whole 24 x 36 mm. negative were setting.

Yes, of course.
But the monocular 8 x 30 were published by Zeiss and voigtlander (at that moment both the same, think) like the form that their cams could have a 400 and/or 1080 mm lens with a zeiss attachment.
It was an "official" combination, not my idea. For that reason I consider this "combo" like one lens. _________________ Konica 2,8/100

Another really crap lens was a Tokina AF 28-80.
The thing is, I normally like Soligor and Tokina lenses and I have seen excellent versions but also these two terrible ones - abyssmal! _________________ Personal forum activity on pause every now and again (due to job obligations)!

Two lenses are sharing the end of my list.
My first 135 was a Makinon with a strange close-focussing mechanism. The quality of the Makinon seemed more like a no-focussing mechanism, i have not achieved one really sharp shot with it. At last it was replaced by a Takumar 2.8/105mm that is still in my collection.
The other worst lens was a Pentor 28mm that performed not quite as one would expect even from a cheap wideangle. It seemed not to perform at all, but at the time it was the only wideangle i could afford. I finally got rid of it exchanging it for a Tokina 28mm(it got some € 3 off the price of the Tokina)
To make sure that it was no incidental lack of quality i tried a few Pentor 28's at the camerafair in Houten recently and they were all as crappy as the one i had. _________________

So.. unless you know a better candidate? lol

PS - Oddly the Tammy LD/IF 70-300mm AF is an unsung hero in the value / performance stakes, so we all know they could do better!

I had a Tamron LD 70-300 and it was a great performer. Wonderful closeups and long distance. I agree with your assessment 100%. _________________ Big Dawg |

Yes, it was an OK lens for the purpose.
Fact is, I never bought really bad lenses. I always avoided them. So there are surely worst lenses than the Sigma, but I never used them. _________________ Orio, Administrator

The worst lens I've ever used was some Underground-branded 80-200 f4.5 in OM mount. It was soft at all apertures, soft at all focal lengths, and couldn't even reach infinity focus properly. I tore it apart one day as a learning experience and kept the front element to use as a diopter.
Another one I should probably mention is the Canon EF 70-210 f4 push-pull. Pretty awful wide open, soft and rife with ugly CA in OOF areas. |

Some remarks to the Tamron 28-200:
There are many different versions of this lens, so please do not put them all into one drawer!
I had the chance to compare an AF 28-200 and an MF 28-200.
The Tamron 3.8-5.6/28-200 Asph. LF (IF) as the MF-lens and the Tamron 3.8-5.6/28-200 AF Asph. XR (IF) as the AF-lens.
None of these lenses is soft. The newer AF-Tamron is a little sharper but the "older" MF-Tamron is not much behind it! As far as personality is concerned, I would prefer the "older" MF-version, the AF-Tamron can be sterile sometimes. To be honest, I guess that these are some of the best "Superzoom" lenses you can find!
Actually, I really like both 28-200 since either one is better than my even newer (and much more expensive) Tamron 28-300 ever was! Although that one was a "digitally optimized" version.
The only "problem" I had was the 28mm wide end which equals about 42mm on a Nikon/Fuji crop cam (with which I used them). A lens that offer a zoom range from 42 to 300 is not really useful for me, nor for my dad who owns the AF-version. (He will replace it with an 18-200 soon for short one-lens trips.) _________________ Personal forum activity on pause every now and again (due to job obligations)!

That is so true!
It is my worst lens as well, I never use it under f/11 where it is still quite weak on the corners - the only good thing being the 10mm really...if Nikon only made more of the 13/5.6 back then for us manual-on-dx-users _________________ Nikon D40 + 20/4 Ai - 24/2.8 N - 28/2.8 Ais - 35/2 Ai - 50/1.4 Ais - 50/1.8 Ais - 50/1.8 E - 50/2 Ai - 55/3.5 P.C - 105/2.5 Ais - 135/2.8 Q.C - 180/2.8 Ais - 50-300/4.5 Ai |

My worst lens is the POS kit lens that came with my EOS Kiss-F. Such a POS that I don't even know what it is. Some generic 18-50. OIS is nice and AF is fast (but that's probably the Canon body, not the lens), but that's about it. I'm so unimpressed with it that I don't even consider it part of my lens arsenal. Good thing I'm getting rid of it soon, along with the Kiss-F, as part of my 5D fund _________________ Sony α7R, Pentax 67II, Kiev-60, Hasselblad 203FE, 903SWC, Graflex Norita 66, Mamiya M645 1000s, Burke & James 8x10, Graflex Pacemaker Speed Graphic (4x5 and 3x4), Century Graphic (2x3), R.B.
