 Go to extremes with the world's first 22.2x ultra-telephoto all-in-one zoom Introducing the world's first ultra-telephoto all-in-one zoom lens for the APS-C format. With a focal length range of 18-400mm and 22.2x zoom, it has an ultra-telephoto range equivalent to 620mm in the 35mm format. This brings distant subjects closer, while providing perspective-flattening effects that are only possible with an extreme telephoto lens. Plus it offers exceptional optical performance across the entire zoom range-from wide angle to ultra-telephoto. Moisture-Resistant Construction protects your lens For greater protection when shooting outdoors, leak-proof seals throughout the lens barrel help protect your equipment.  Compatible with the TAP-in Console For greater protection when shooting outdoors, leak-proof seals throughout the lens barrel help protect your equipment. Electromagnetic diaphragm system An electromagnetic diaphragm system, which has been a standard feature for Canon-mount lenses, is employed in Nikon-mount lenses. More precise diaphragm and aperture control is possible because the diaphragm blades are driven and controlled by a motor through electronic pulse signals. With this new lens-and its Moisture-Resistant Construction-Tamron brings the art of photography to the joy of travel. Now you can use the same lens to shoot everything from stunning landscapes and neon-lit cities to detailed portraits and delicate flora. The ultra-telephoto range makes it just as easy to photograph animals and sports. And with a maximum magnification ratio of 1:2.9, you can even enjoy tele-macro photography. The Travel Zoom Powerful performance that exceeds your imagination. The perfect lens for travel. Capture everything while packing light! Experience amazing focal length range and exceptional optical performance Introducing the world's first ultra-telephoto all-in-one zoom with a focal length range of 18mm to 400mm. Now you can shoot everything from vast landscapes to the details on a bird with a single lens. The latest optical design includes elements such as LD (Low Dispersion) glass and aspherical lens. Moreover, problems like chromatic aberration and distortion are controlled throughout the entire zoom range, resulting in sharp, superior images-whether you're shooting at wide-angle or telephoto. The lens also features a maximum magnification ratio of 1:2.9 so you can enjoy tele-macro photography. 620mm capability, compact size Until now, shooting at ultra-telephoto ranges meant carrying large interchangeable lenses. Thanks to the all-in-one zoom technology developed by Tamron, you can travel with a single lens that's 4.8" long and weighs only 24.9oz. Experience the thrill of shooting with compact equipment that makes it easy to capture ultra-telephoto images. Three cams. One smooth zoom Our ultra-telephoto all-in-one zoom includes an all-new barrel design. By distributing complex movements across three cams, Tamron has ensured that all zoom extensions are smooth and easy. Highly precise. Conveniently compact Tamron's exclusive HLD (High/Low torque-modulated Drive) saves power while providing superior drive. It focuses accurately and quietly while adjusting the motor's rotation from low to high speeds, enabling smooth autofocusing. HLD let us design a space-saving AF module, for a sleeker barrel and reduced overall lens size. Sharp, solid telephoto shots Tamron's VC (Vibration Compensation) technology stabilizes the image in the viewfinder, so you can frame your subject and shoot a sharp image even at ultra-telephoto ranges and in poorly lit conditions. Tamron wows the world again with our ultra-telephoto all-in-one-zoom In 1992, all-in-one zoom lenses were known for their heavy weight, bulky size and mediocre performance. Tamron revolutionized the industry by creating a lightweight, compact, high-performance "all-in-one zoom lens" that was perfect for everyday use. It launched to worldwide acclaim, cementing Tamron's role as a pioneer in the "all-in-one zoom lens" category. Whereas the zoom magnification was 7.1x in 1992, it has increased to 22.2x for the Model B028 which is the world's first to achieve 400mm at the telephoto end. With its advanced optical system, compact lens barrel, high-precision cam configurations and VC, the B028 introduces the next level of Tamron innovation: the "ultra-telephoto all-in-one zoom lens".

To be fair, I was used to incredible sharp clear images from my 70-300 Nikon lens with Nikon d7100 camera. However, it started having trouble focusing after years of use. Forced to find a replacement I looked for something that gave me more range w/o being too heavy. I am still trying to get used to the lack of sharpness. It does take shots at great lengths but they look more like newspaper photo images. I wish my old lens still worked. When you take a shot, you always want it to be the absolutely best it can be.

Hoped for better. Although there are shots you might miss if you had to be switching lens for close up and distance.

It's sharp at 400. But it's not so easy to focus in low light.

Tamron 18-400

This is a wonderful walk around lens to attach to your cropped sensor camera!
Excellent value for the price!

Buy one now!

I originally purchased the 16-300 model and i loved it so much that when Tamron came out with the 18-400 i didnt even think about it i just made the purchase and i have been happy with this lens. Its not the fastest but its range is what i got it for as an all around every day walk around lens i can take this lens on my d5600 and just hop on the bike and go where ever shoot whatever. It seems to be good all the way thru at f8. Ive shot sunrise and sunset and I've shot macro bugs and I've shot the. Moon.. crisp clear and happy with every shot.

A great all around lens

remarkable range of focal length in one lens.  Smaller and lighter than expected.  sharp enough resolution for most projects. good tradeoff for price v flexibility.

one lens does it all

The lense did not work out for me. I made an effort with my Canon 90D to get clear photos. Last ditch effort could not get a sharp photo with a herd of Antelope. Auto focus not sharp. Ended up having to use manual focus.  Even with that photos not sharp. My 70300mm Canon usm Ii much better. Hated to send it back. Not user friendly lense gave up.

Not a sharp shooting Lense. Canon 90d

I have used the lens a couple times and have gotten excellent pictures with it and it is fairly lightweight. I received great service from Adorama and got the lens extremely fast.

Great Lens and Service

This lens is awesome. I couldn?t recommend it more

Great lens

Been using it for about a month now. Love this lens it?s super versatile love the long reach but also able to get some wide angles as well. Light and easy to move around which makes it very easy to handhold. The stabilization works good wish there was a bit more stabilization but overall I?ve been happy with it. Images are sharp and the focus is pretty quick. Definitely would recommend for anyone especially for beginners or budget buyers

Great lens. It?s a 600 dollar lens don?t expect it to do 2,000 dollars lens things and you will be very happy with it

I purchased this to upgrade from my 16-300 Tamron. The 400mm range is a nice advantage and the lens is also great for macro photography.

Great Upgrade

I've been using this lens about 3 weeks.  So far I am really liking it, especially that it is fairly lightweight for a lens of this zoom length. I also love that it is 18-400. I have a 70-300 but always disliked that I could not take up close photos w/ it.  Now I can. One lens fits the bill.  Although I' love a greater zoom, I can't handle the weight. I can this one.

Lightweight Zoom!!!

Good

So far, I am very happy with this lens. It performs to my expectations. I like that it is light enough for me to carry without using a tripod.

First Tamron and Happy!

Oh my goodness this is fantastic

As ypubwoupd expect. Good all around lens.

Fantastic and durable

Excellent lens. So good for covering many circumstances. Love the 18-400 range. Lightweight makes it easy for long walks.

Excellent Wildlife lens

Excellent everyday lens! The pictures posted were from a Youth Conference and the lens allowed me to take pictures indoors/outdoors and not in the best lighting conditions. The zoom is excellent and a great improvement to my older Tamron 17-270mm

Excellent Everyday Lens

I took an APS-C camera on vacation and ended using this and a 10-18mm for just about everything. I love the reach on this and how few lenses I need when using it.

Ideal APSC vacation lens

I am a new photographer, but I purchased this lens so that I can take photos of the bald eagles and other birds around the lake that I live on.  Oh my goodness, this lens is amazing and I am able to quietly zoom in and take high quality photos.  I definitely recommend this lens.

quality lens for a good price

so far so good.  With a Nikon Z50 it really is equal to about 27-600

Tamron 18=400

Seems to give a good clarity and Sharp pictures but you need a real steady hand to use without a tripod. It does have some difficulty in low light conditions because of the f-stop but other than that it?s a good lens and it works very well. I would buy it.

Great value for the money.

I highly recommend the 18-400 it is the best lens period.

World's best lens.

Lens

A nice surprise in receiving the bundle . Thank you very much.

Bundle

Excellent lens. I like  the fine tuning feature. I use it mainly for bird photography.  Still learning.

An excellent lens.

Great lens on the D7200. Remained fairly sharp throughout the zoom range. There was a fair amount of purple fringing when against planes in the sky at 400mm, however, that is very easy to correct and acceptable by me given the immense zoom range, it's expected. I am very pleased with this lens and have zero regrets with the purchase!

Bravo Tamron!

Very satisfied. This lens is exactly what I was expecting.......a zoom range that would allow me to shoot from wide angle to zoom without having to change lenses.  It is slightly difficult to zoom, but guaranteed to stay where you set it.  Picture quality is great and the ability to focus close-up is surprisingly good, with such a versatile lens.

Met my expectations

Daughters main lens. She is getting quality image and lens function flawlessly. A little short for some situation as she discovered in Yellowstone.

Outstanding lens

Great pictures, and the zoom range is great to have for vacation photos. Can handle a nice landscape all the way to bird close-ups. One downside is the focus is noticeably slower than my old Nikon 18-70 zoom lens. The Vibration Control works pretty well.
