Product Description
Maintaining the high performance of the previous model, Tamron's new 28-300mm zoom lens now features our "Di" design, making it the ideal lens for use with both digital and film cameras. The "Di" design is achieved by applying a new optical design to its coated surfaces, and by further enhancing our already stringent quality control system. Whether you shoot film or digital, the lens provides high image quality for both platforms. When used with APS-C size digital SLR cameras, the lens provides an angle of view equivalent to approximately 44-465mm, covering the standard to ultra telephoto range with no sacrifice of quality or aperture range.

 Slow, an okay lens. August 16, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this lens used when upgraded to digital with my Nikon D80. It seemed like an okay lens for the price, with an amazing zoom ability (it's range is VERY useful) but I was disappointed at how slow it focuses. There's no manual focus override when it's in autofocus, unlike my other AF lenses. The focus ring is completely locked when it's on AF. Again, for the price it's good, I wasn't expecting a fixed 2.8 aperture for anything under a thousand. It's also not the sharpest lens either, especially at 300mm. On a good note, the close focusing is very nice.br /br /I'd recommend it to someone who isn't looking going to be shooting sports or wildlife.
tamron lens great for travel March 21, 2008
I was looking for a lens that is very compact for travel. This lens is replacing a tamron 28-70 and 70-300 lens. I was very satisfied overall with the quality of the pictures. I have used tamron lenses in the past and have not been disappointed. The price is right for what you get, as compared to the canon lenses. Although there is a noticeable difference in quality between the two, I was not disappointed in the pictures that I took with tamron lens. It was very compact, very portable, saved lots of time from having to change lenses. I was quite surprised with the macro and was impressed that I was able to get pretty close to my subject with pretty good focus. Overall I am pretty satisfied, economical lens with decent zoom range. Worked out great for travel as I had a larger zoom range and was able to leave other lenses home and had more room for other equipment. I would definitley recommend this lens if your looking for this range and economical as compared to other lenses.
tamron for canon rebel February 22, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I loved this lens at first. However, after only a few times use with my Canon Rebel, it every so often gives me an error signal, causing me to miss important pictures. A friend told me she has had the same experience. Therefore, for the price, it's not so reliable.

This lens is not a bad deal considering its price and focal range. HOWEVER, if you are hoping for very sharp photos this is not the lens for you. Furthermore the lens (my sample anyway) had quite a bit of chromatic aberation and color fringing. I could have lived with the lack of sharpness but not the color fringing so back it went.
