Good Lens for the budgeted photographer

Date of Review:  Jan 6, 2004
The Bottom Line: All in all if you are on a limited photography budget and looking for a tele-photo zoom lens, especially with MACRO function, this is a great one to choose.
Review: I have a fairly serious photography hobby and if you're into photography you know it can add up quickly.

I decided to extend my photography with a tele-photo lens and there were a number of lens' for me to choose from. My camera body is a...

Zoom me up Scotty!

Date of Review:  Jun 14, 2001
The Bottom Line: Great combination of focal length, macro capability and quality/price. A value in this category.
Review: Having recently purchased a new Canon EOS Elan 7e, with the standard 38-90 Canon USM lens, I wanted more. I had sold off my older Canon gear, which included 4 lenses and a 2X Tamron teleConverter, as well as an excellent Tamron short zoom lens.

Tamron 70-300mm - you get more than you pay for...in the beginning

Date of Review:  Aug 27, 2001
The Bottom Line: Excellent lens for the beginning and intermediate photographer and for a great price. AF motor is, however, noisy.
Review: introduction:
I purchased the Tamrom 70-300/4-5.6 lens many months after the initial purchase of my Canon D30 and Canon 28-105/3.5-4.5 USM lens. With the Tamron, I also purchased a film Canon Elan 7E body so that I could shoot some film shots...

A Great Lens For The Advanced

Date of Review:  May 15, 2000
Review: This is an incredible lens. It has a focus length up to 300 meters. It is incredible how far this thing goes. The distance of this lens so long and precise that sometimes I feel like I could use it for a sniping scope. This is not for the avereage...

Low Price, High Quality Pictures!

Date of Review:  Mar 14, 2003
The Bottom Line: Great price, great pics, lightweight lens takes great shots!
Review: I purchased this lens along with a Tamron 28-105mm lens on advice from several other Tamron lens owners. I had originally priced Nikkor lenses, but the comparable Nikkor was $269.99, and way over budget for me. Also, come to find out, Tamron...

Entry level zoom telephoto

Date of Review:  Sep 9, 2005
The Bottom Line: Bottom line: If you're a point-and-shoot dSLR photographer who doesn't make large prints, it's a good value. To reach the full capabilities of your camera body, buy something better.
Review: Introduction (a story):
I purchased this lens shortly after my start in SLR digital photography. The 18-55mm kit lens which came packaged with my Canon Digital Rebel (300D) simply wasn't cut for anything but close range snapshotting. I went...

Great addition to my Canon Rebel 2000

Date of Review:  Apr 28, 2003
The Bottom Line: I have to say, for the money, this lens is an EXCELLENT purchase for those looking to upgrade! The weight, the ease of use, the results are great!
Review: About 3 years ago I was given a Canon Rebel 2000 as a Christmas present. At the time, I suggested a "kit" I knew nothing about the camera or lens that came with it (Tamron 28-80mm). As time went on, and I learned more about the camera and...

The big boy in my bag

Date of Review:  Mar 18, 2004
The Bottom Line: Get this lens for the Canon. I advised my Father to get one. what more do you want as an endorsement
Review: Coming from an F1 to the eos line I have found this lens is modest in weight. The metal shoe is a nice touch, that leads to a smooth coupling on the elan. my camera came with a piece of s___ lens, this was my replacement and I have loved the...

Good telephoto zoom with the Tamron mount advantage

Date of Review:  Jun 3, 2000
Review: There have been a lot of mid-level zoom-telephoto lenses out
there, and optically I think this is one of the better ones. It's
well made, with a solid feel, and I must especially salute the
macro function; I've obtained some wonderfully...

Decent, but not great

Date of Review:  Feb 3, 2001
The Bottom Line: For the $150 I paid it is a good lens, but if you are looking for pro quality results, I recommend you invest the money in a pro quality lens.
Review: I have been using this lens now for about 8 months and find it to perform the job that I need it too, however, it does not exceed my expectations or really shine in any way. It takes good quality pictures, which I think every lens should do, and it...
