 One Lens Brings All of Life's Treasures into Focus   A versatile, all-in-one zoom for hobby, home and travel.   Covering focal lengths from 18 to 200mm, this compact zoom can take great shots in a myriad of situations.   Tamron 18-200mm F/3.5-6.3 Di II is a lens made for capturing everyday life and special occasions with a smile. The 18-200mm is the culmination of Tamron's persistent efforts to perfect the high-power zoom lens category since 1992. This innovative lens is lightweight, high quality and ideal as a beginner's first interchangeable lens - or a casual user's only lens.   Recommended for APS-C photographers who...   &#149; Want all-in-one zoom versatility that's ready for the next shot.  &#149; Want image stabilization to insure sharp images under a variety of lighting conditions  &#149; Prefer the most compact equipment for travel and everyday convenience.  &#149; Want fewer lens changes, reducing instances of exposing the DSLR sensor to image-degrading dust, or missing the shot.  &#149; Want image quality exceeding typical kit lens capabilities.  Tamron Di II lenses are performance optimized for digital SLR cameras and usable with DSLRs featuring sensors commonly referred to as APS-C, measuring approximately 24mm x 16mm, as well as larger full frame (36mm x 24mm) sensors and 35mm film SLRs.

While this is in no way an L series lens, or even an above average quality glass, for the price and versatility, this is a good lens for everyday snapshots and run-and-gun photos?.

Aint half bad?.

I consider myself an amateur/hobbyist photographer at an intermediate level.  This lens was recommended to me, and so far, I love it!  It bridges a gap between the two kit lenses that came with my Canon Rebel T6 in that it sits between the 18-55mm and the 75-300mm.  It allows me to get a wide range of shots without having to constantly change lenses.  It's also fast when it comes to auto-focus and I have been very pleased with the shots I've taken so far.  It's at a great price point too for someone like me who wanted to upgrade from my kit lenses to something a little better without spending hundreds or thousands of dollars.  Just be aware that you do get what you pay for.  It takes great pics, but it's not going to compare with high-end lenses.

Great Lens at a Great Price!

Great lens! I love the versatility this lens has. I can have just one lens instead of having to switch out 2/3 lenses saves lots of time and hassle.

Get this lens!

Midrange zoom lens that happens to take excellent pictures. It is a very good addition to my photographic tools.

Excellent lens

Got this for my wife's camera bag as a Christmas gift.  So far, she loves it.

Great everyday lens

Very versatile lens. Great recommendation from Adorama staff. Fits my needs very well.

Tamron lens

I am pleased with the versatility of this lens. It allows me to do a variety of different shooting without having to switch lenses and it's bright enough for most outdoor uses.

A good workhorse

I really enjoy this lens.  It is a bargain for price.  Due to the fact that I like to hike and bike, this is the lens that I keep on the camera.  It does not have the sharpest images, but  range in focal distances makes it a great all purpose utility lens

A Tamron lens that is good for a lot of purposes

This has the perfect zoom range for most shooting. Perfect for me. The only reason it's not give stars is that it is slow.

Perfect.

Nice lens, not the sharpest focus on autofocus, but is a great vale for the price

Ram ton Lens

prompt, perfect, priced rite, some other 'P' word that eludes me

Not the sharpest lens. Maybe if I could do a lens calibration but my little Nikon D3500 doesn't have that feature.
It does make for a nice lightweight combo with the D3500.

Lightweight but not super sharp.

Haven't had an opportunity to use.  No real picture taking during pandemin.  Several  indoor test proved acceptable,

Waiting for good shooting times.

I bought this lens for my wife who attached it to a Nikon D3200. She has a little trouble with the focusing when she zooms this lens out at 200mm because it's sticking, but she enjoys taking pictures with it. And the issues are not consistent enough to say that it's because of the lens. If you want a great lens for this camera I definitely recommend the Tamron 18-200mm.

Cassandra's lens

I am a beginner/intermediate photographer and was looking for a lens, that I could use for a variety of things. It did just that. I have used it a couple of times and am loving it so far.

Love it!

Nice lense. Light weight. Great price, quick shipping

Great lense

Excellent all-purpose lens for my Nikon D3500. Good picture at all lengths, compact size. I like mine!

Good for my D3500

Solid all around lens. Glass isnt the sharpest in the world, but I've sold my 18-55 and my 50-200 using this as a replacement and I'm super happy so far

A solid lens

Awesome and versatile lens. So far I am.loving it.

Great versatile lens

Adorama is great, fast shipping and wonderful to work with. Always by from them anymore. Lens is a really nice lens. Works well on my Canon T3. Will get to do some heavy testing to the zoo coming up but I suspect it will do well.

Nice lens on my T3 Canon

I love this lens, especially for the price range. I generally take pictures without the Auto-Focus and this lens fits my need to be creative within a matter of seconds. Image Stabilization on of course...

Perfect Lens for the price.

This is a great all  purpose photo lens. It’s a great lens for several different photo shoots. I’m very happy with Tamron products.

Multi-purpose lens From Tamron

I love this lense. I don’t have to carry a bunch of lenses just this one. I can shoot up close or zoom for farther away shots.

I love this lense 

The price and picture quality is good for it price and long range.  I use it to photography Fashion events. If low light set your new camera to auto iso.

Great lenses for studio or daylight shoots

This lense replaces using two different lenses and saves space in my bag.  It takes great photos.

Replaces two lenses

I won't get into details on this lens because it is a very low priced lens compared to other lens in the market. Relative to price, it performs very well, and - relative to price - it's a great value.

I will continue to reiterate "relative to price" because I believe you need to take into consideration this important aspect when reading people's reviews. I don't feel that others take this into account at times, but you must because price is generally a direct correlation to quality and performance. In virtually every market, you get what you pay for, and if you pay significantly less for an item compared to others in the market, you HAVE to expect that you made some type of sacrifice.

Therefore, I would recommend that you read between the lines in reviews that compare this lens to lenses of 2x, 3x, or even 4x the price.

For the price, this lens performs well, is well built, and has a great warranty. This is a great hobbyist lens, light for travel and for "small hands" (kids learning photo like my daughter which was why I purchased it), with Auto Focus, Vibration Compensation, and a VERY usable range from 18-200mm. Auto focus is okay- not fast but still relatively accurate, but it's very reliant on the body it's mounted on. On my daughter's D3100, it's "acceptable", and on my high-end bodies, it's very good (especially in lower light in comparison) - just pointing that out because you have to consider what body this is put on when you read reviews in regards to AF. Images are very good - not tack sharp, but very acceptable of a lens of this price, but also significantly impacted by aperture.

My recommendations:
- Don't treat this as a bokeh master - The lens is not nearly as sharp wide-open as it is stopped down 2 stops. Many lenses don't have this drastic of a difference, but I notice this one does. Stop it down if you want considerably sharper images. Shoot in aperture priority mode and keep it at f/8.
- Turn off VC unless you need it. The VC works well when hand-held at slower shutters, but this is an early implementation by Tamron of VC so it kind of gets in the way when it's not needed (have witnessed slight blur induced while tripod mounted when we forgot to turn it off). If shooting with high shutter speed or tripod mount, turn it OFF.
- The zoom ring is stiff when new, and a bit hitchy. But it does loosen over time, and then the hitch is less of an issue. But again, this isn't the quality kind of glass that you necessarily need a fast, smooth zoom ring for.

This is a lens that fills a great niche - entry level AF lens with good VC and a perfect zoom range for a single-lens hobbyist or learner, at an unbeatable price.

Relative to price, this is an excellent lens

This lens was perfect for travel pics, lightweight and small footprint of lens makes for quick shots and ease of carry

Nice for travel

I keep this lens on my camera virtually all the time. Lightweight.
I just recently purchased this lens and still learning with it.
So far, I am not 5 star pleased with the clarity but it is not exactly bad either. I am not a pro so clarity may get better as I do!
