Tamron AF 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 XR Di II LD Aspherical (IF) Macro Zoom Lens for Canon Digital SLR Cameras
Buy Low Price From Here Now
The Tamron AF18-200mm high power zoom lens features an entirely new optical design using XR (Extra Refractive Index) glass in an innovative way in order to optimize the overall distribution of optical power throughout the entire zoom range. This design reduces various aberrations to the absolute minimum and achieves remarkable downsizing at the same time. In addition, three hybrid aspherical lens elements and two LD (Low Dispersion) glass elements are used to accomplish effective compensation of on-axis and lateral chromatic aberrations, a critical factor to enhance the optical quality in digital photography. As a result, the lens provides outstanding optical quality in a multi-purpose zoom lens. A glare-reducing flower-shaped lens hood is included as a standard accessory. The special hood provides optimum shading of superfluous light rays that enter from the rectangular frame outside the image field

Disappointed with the lens. Not clear at all and very slow to focus. I returned it immediately.

I am a professional wedding photographer and I tried this lens on my canon 7D at my daughter’s Halloween party at school. I’m glad I didn’t bring it to a wedding off the bat. The room (as most school rooms are) is well lit from windows and the florescents were on - the lens couldn’t pick up on the dark costumes to grab fast enough. It hunted a lot and I lost some shots. At the widest, there was A LOT of blur around the edges. Not a crisp shot. I returned it today (after receiving it the day before yesterday). I do have another Tamron zoom that is slow to focus, but this one was much slower in lower light - would not have worked at a wedding ceremony (especially a church) nor a reception.

I bought this lens to upgrade from the lense that came with my Rebel XTI. I used the “old” lens (18-50mm) on a two week trip to Scandinavia last year and did not bring a longer one due to luggage limits. I bought this one for a three week trip around the Canadian Maritimes this fall and it provided much more flexibility in the shots I could take using just one lens. As for improved quality of the photos, I guess its hard to say since I sharpen all of my photos and when framing an image in the view finder, I allow for a little cropping during post-processing in Photoshop. I much prefer it to the original lens for the range of shots I can take while travelling without having to switch out lenses.

I don’t recommend this Leans, the one I got it is not sharp and all the pic it takes are soft and not sharp
maybe the one I received is like this but I can write a review for the product I got

I bought this lens to shoot a wedding of a friend of mine. It was the only lens I needed. I used the zoom from the loft down to the alter and the same lens at the alter close up. Worked great!
