Product Details of Tamron AF28-300mm F/3.5-6.3 XR Di Zoom Lens

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.

Zoom Wide Angle-Telephoto AF 28-300mm f/3.5-6.3 XR...

Strengths: Good for the price paid.

Weakness: None found yet.

A great all-purpose lens, several of my Flickr friends have this lens and are all quite happy with it. Very good lens for the price. This lens gives a very clear picture at 300 even when enlarged. The Macro shots are clear and detailed. In a picture I recently took of my cat, you could see each whisker on her face and her coat was very detailed. The versatility of the lens allows me to take...

Big Lens in a Small Package

Strengths: Good price,small,lightweight,great optics

Weakness: Fuzzy without lens stabilizer, and low light a little hard to focus.

It performed very well although I did have some fuzzy pictures, but tend to blame myself since I was just getting used to the lens. I was lucky that I...

Tamron 28-300mm Di Macro AF Lens for Canon EOS

Strengths: light weight, small size, good price

I bought this lens for my first Digital SLR camera, Canon Rebel XT 350D. Canon 28-300mm lens just too much for me ($2100), and I was told Sigma 28-300mm lens have AF problem with canon camera (not confirmed). So seems this Tamron lens is my only choice. Over all, this is a very nice lens, everything I need for a beginner SLR camera. But it would be even nicer, if it has Image Stabilizer, since I...

Great value, good performance

Strengths: Price, performance, good quality optics

Weakness: Clarity a little soft on the long end of lens

Probably like you, I cannot afford Canon lenses. So I look to Tamron and others to provide good optics and great value. The Tamron AF 28-300 performs very well, offering durability, reliable functionality and good to superior optics. At the low to mid-range on this lens, it packs great punch. Only at the long end does image quality suffer a bit, resulting in some picture softness. I'm not a...
