An excellent walk-about or backup lens. If I need to carry just a single lens, the DA* 50-135 stays home and this one comes along (for macro functionality and wider angle). This was actually the lens that made me believe that a quality zoom is possible. When I gave my son a DSLR as a present, I bought a second 24-135 SP just for him - I was certainly not giving up mine!

Introducing in the third in our series of high power zoom lenses, following on the successes of the 28-200mm and the 28-300mm mega-zoom lenses. The zoom lens from Tamron covers everything from the 24mm real wideangle that professionals and serious amateurs demand to 135mm telephoto suitable for portraits-all in one compact package. The first SP lens among Tamron's high power zoom lenses, the lens represents a concept in high power zoom lenses, achieving outstanding performance characteristics worthy of the name SP (Super Performance).
