Pros:?digital photography ReviewJust received mine today and I must say that, after reading a ton of reviews, the build of the lens has actually exceeded my expectations. One of the main things I read as a "con" in many reviews was the complaint of "lens creep". from Dell.com The more I compare photos taken with this lens to photos taken with others, the more I realize how poor it really is. The lack of clarity is pretty much completely unacceptable past about 200mm. from Amazon.com The 28-300 zoom range on this lens made my recent trip to Alaska a real joy to photograph! In the past, I have had to switch between two lenses, over and over and over again to get the pictures that I wanted. from Amazon.com Pros: Depending on the close up needs of your photography, either an 18 to... or a 28 to ... will meet your needs. from Newegg.com I shot over 250 picts with this lens in Moab, UT. Great results. from Amazon.com I own this for 6 months...had a great time travelling with this and my D700 Nikon camera. PRO: satisfied that this lens is not as sharp as prime lenses, however, it is a general purpose walk about lens. from Amazon.com Great lens, but ups broke the first one and I lost a few nights shooting. from Amazon.com I have owned this lens for a little over a year, so I have had a good chance to do some comparisons. Please be advised that all my comparison are with lenses that I also own, based on observation. from Amazon.com I have taken over 1000 shots with the lense. The area where I have experience a problems are: moisture and focusing. from Amazon.com I'm an enthusiast and owned only Nikon lenses, including 14-24mm f2.8, 50mm f1.4, and 70-200mm f2.8, prior to acquiring this Tamron AF 28-300mm VC lens. I've been looking for a decent walk-around lens for quite a while, and came by this Tamron lens accidentally. from Amazon.com
