The type of user that the Tamron AF 18-270mm F/3.5-6.3 Di II VC PZD is aimed at will be perfectly happy with the performance of it. Picture quality is overall very good and we got some lovely sharp results from it.

Good overall lens. Auto focus is very slow compared with my previous Nikon 18-200 mm lens. Not an ideal lens for fast action shots. I use my camera often to take shots at our grandchildrens' soccer games. Focus is also a bit soft and not crisp as the Nikon lens.

I was looking for a lens that I could attach to my D5200 to meet the requirements for most occasions, so I did not have to carry several lens all the time. This lens does everything I was looking for, excellent! Auto focus works well, lens is not too heavy and easy to attach.

Glad I bought this lens when I did - even though the price has dropped since I bit the bullet.

Very good quality; highly versatile; light weight lens

lens creep and tiny bit of aberation

Compared image quality with Canon 18-135mm...no difference in quality at same mm. Little slow in focusing inside the house/in inadequate light. But I had expected that. Happy with my purchase.Love it for the price.

Very good price

Fast and good photographer

Nothing

Great product and service for a great price.

This lens is compact, light and operates smoothly. It appears to have a good zoom range. It gives a good sharp rendition. It is priced right and is good value.

The Tamron 18-270mm f/3.5-6.3 Di-II VC PZD offers an eye-watering focal range that translates to a huge 15x optical zoom

Review of the first 15x superzoom lens for APS-C format DSLRs, and it includes Vibration Compensation for sharp-shooting even at slow shutter speeds.
