Questions & Answers

Zita B : would this lens be compatible with a Nikon D7200?JAE THOMAS S : Yes, the D7200 is F Mount!VIEN T : Yes, it's compatible for D7100, D7200. Love this lens for travel, multipurpose.PHILIP M : Yes, I use it on a 5600ED D : I have used this lens with my D5400 and currently on my D7500. Very versatile and provides good results for the moneyROBERT L : This lens is in my opinion the best all in one lens and will function perfectly with your D7200. I had the same combination for several years and was always very satisfied with the results.RICK H : Yes. Nice lens.Jerry E : Yes
Simon L : will this lens work on a full-frame camera if you put it on??JOHN C : Do not know as I don't have a full frame camera.Kenneth G : I believe it is meant for DX CamerasGLEN T : No, it is designed for a crop sensor camera and won't let in enough light. Must say it is a great lens for a crop sensor camera. Love it!GEORGE K : Yes, but it will.Simon L : Do you know of which full frame camera has the option to reduce the sensor size? So this lens wouldn't not do what the prime lens do if you insert a 35mm 1.8g dx nikkor lens onto a full frame dslr it won't crop the image size or insert a 50mm 1.8g which is a fx lense into a non full frame camera will make the focal distance larger...Gerald D : It will "work", but will show substantial vignetting (shadowing or black borders) around the edge of the image. It is designed for cameras with a smaller (APS-C) not-full-frame sensor, and will project an image onto a full-frame sensor that is smaller than the full dimension of the sensor. Some DSLR full-frame cameras have a menu selection to reduce the sensor size to fit APS-C lenses which will solve this problem. This is an excellent lens, but probably not a good choice if you have a full-frame DSLR.ROBERT P : I don't know for sure as I have the nikon D5500. But usually all lens that work on dx cameras will work on full frame cameras. This is a great lens you will be very satisfied. BobSTANLEY M : I'm not sure if it's compatible with FF cameras. I use it on a NIkon D5500 and it works fine.MARC F : I don't have a full frame camera body to test this on but I I believe the theory on using this lens on a full frame body still holds and you will get performance in the central part of the frame but suffer pronounced lose at the edges. As an aside I keep this lens on as a work-horse getting excellent results at events from birthday to soccer games. I lits relatively slow so I keep a flash with bounce capabilities in car of low light. The lens not fast and I like to keep ISO low.. I love the results and it serves me very well. Good Luck and God Bless.
Simon L : will this work on a nikon d3400??PETER D : It should work on the d3400. I use it with my d7100 and it is sharp and is the most versatile lens I have ever had. You can't go wrong with this lens.DAVID D : I use it on a D 5200 with absolutely no problem and it should work just as well on the 3400.CHARLES R : I have never tried this lens on a D3400. However, it certainly should work on any modern Nikon DSLR camera. I have used it on a D7000, D7100, D7200, and a D500. It's my go to walk around lens. I have many other lenses for special needs. I did NOT like the Tamron 18-270. But, I heartily recommend the Tamron 16-300.ERROL Y : Yes, all digital slrs have the same mount!JUSTIN S : This should work on just about any newer Nikon Camera from the D3200 and up. I have it for my D3300 and it works amazingly well. I do not use it as much anymore since I got a full frame D750 but if they had this lenses in FX instead of dimly DX, this would be my all time lensemof Choice.

Use as a normal lens

Use this lens as my normal lens. It?s mounted on my camera all the time. I can go from a macro shot to a long shot without changing my lens. Images are sharp as a tack,

Tamron 16-300mm

Great travel lens. I was able to capture whale watching, open door helicopter tour as well as more normal sightseeing and people watching. Fast and sharp.

Not for me.

This lens did NOT keep up. The focus was constantly off, and it just wouldn't lock at the longer end at all. Big paperweight unfortunately.

Very versitle

A good lens across the entire zoom range. Great for travel as you have a 300 mm lens for those long shots and a 16 mm lens for when you want wide angle.

great lens

Have enjoyed this lens for several years. Actually has become my 'go to' lens most of the time. Pics great, no drift when unlocked and has a great range. If the 16-400 is like this, would also be good investment.

Issues in Autofocus mode.

I liked the lens initially. It's light weight and fast auto focus. It had some issue with larger focal length, around 270 to 300mm range. But it started malfunctioning within a year and completely stopped working in auto focus more. I'm autofocus mode The lens does not allow the shutter to operate. It's manual focusing is working though.

I love this lens

I was torn between getting the 18-400 or this one and after reading dozens of different reviews I am happy that I choose this lens. It is a great all in one travel lens and does not add a huge amount of weight to the camera,

Wonderful for us one-lens people

If you pack and regularly switch lenses, this may not be your best option, as should be expected, sharpness falls off a bit at the near and far limits of this lens. But if you are like me and routinely carry/use one lens to reduce clutter, hassle and weight, this is a wonderful option. I especially appreciate the water-resistance. I shoot a lot from small boats moving fast in salt water.

Love this lens

In full daylight, this is the only lens I use. Simply stated, it's like two kit lenses in one but with a better build.

Tamron 16-300mm lens

A very good walk around lens. I believe that this in the only long zoom that is also ultra wide I.E. 16mm. The 2mm between 16mm and 18mm is quite large and very usable. I tried the Nikkor 16-85mm lens and it was very good but cost about twice the cost of this lens. The lens is very sharp from 16mm to 200mm. From 200 to 300 it is still close to excellent and very usable and few will see and difference.

Excellent range and quality

Good travel and all-purpose lens.

This is my second Tamron zoom lens. I've been very satisfied with both lenses. Just took it on a 2-week trip to Colorado and got some great shots. The 16 mm to 300 mm zoom capability is great. It's wonderful not having to change lenses, especially when hiking or traveling. I also have a good 2.8 16mm to 50mm zoom which rarely requires a flash I really requires a flash. I tried this lens indoors without a flash and I was disappointed. It's definitely a capable, all-purpose lens. You get what you pay for. What more can you ask.

Takes some getting used-to

This is my first lens of this type. I've only had it about a month, but in that time I haven't been able to use it as much as I hoped (we've had a string of cruddy weather, so I couldn't get out to shoot). Just toodling around my backyard with my dogs- the lens feels good for weight and works well enough. There's some minor stuff I need to get used to when it comes to using a lens this long (at its longest point, that is). The real test will come next month when I use it at the Bristol Renaissance Faire (I'm one of their photographers). I dress up and carry my gear in a basket (which is both nerdy and kind of silly, because I whip out the camera whenever I need to, thereby negating the point of blending in with garb) so the lightweight feel compared to having two or three lenses in my basket was what drew me to this lens. Also- not needing to change it out will come in handy as renaissance faires are notoriously dusty. Do I like the lens? Yes. Would I recommend it? I suppose, but I can't say for sure till the "ultimate test of the ren faire" in July. If I can update this review then, I will.

1st time with a Tamron

Paired it with the Nikon D500, and so far I'k very impressed; from macro to near the end of the long reach 300mm. The image stabilization seems quite effective.

Excellent update to previous extended zoom lense

Seems to perform as well as my previous 18-270. What I like is the extended zoom range and manual focus which is active even during autofocus. The focus ring and zoom ring positions have been reversed. This has been giving me problems since I am used to the old positions. As with the previous version, this is a great lense to take on hikes. You are always ready to photo wildlife.

Like the convience of shooting at different distances without changing lenses. Not overly impressed with shots at 300mm compared to my nikkor 70-300mm. Overall very satisfied

best walk around lens

This one lens too the place of a Canon 18~200mm and a Tamron 70~300mm lens. Less in my camera bag is better especially when I fly. No more swapping lenses while on vacation.
