Product Description

 
This is a new zoom lens from Tamron that lets you bring your far away subjects up close while compressing the distance between the main subject and the background for professional-looking results. Even while covering up to a 500mm that enables you to take ultra telephoto shots of subjects further than the eye can see, its design is extremely lightweight and compact. When mounted on an APS-C size digital SLR camera, it provides a focal length equivalent to a 760mm for super ultra telephoto imaging.

Stabilized long lens for < $850!!!

Date of Review:  Apr 12, 2006

Cheap, lightweight, and decently sharp. Autofocus not ideal for wildlife

Date of Review:  Jun 30, 2008
The Bottom Line: Almost a great lens, due to low weight, low cost, and good sharpness. But focus issues makes it difficult for wildlife photography.
Review: This is the THIRD time I have submitted this review to Epinions. My first review somehow vanished, only to reappear under, of all places, the Epinions listing for a SanDisk flash drive. I never reviewed that drive, and have no idea how my lens...
