Pros: Focal Range, Stabilized, Portability

Cons: Doesn't excel at anything

Opinion: It's not an L-series. And he doesn't want to be. It's a convenient all-rounder lens for aps-c. For photo shoots you need more, but I think a professional knows it well. Is it dark? Yes. Is it blurry? Yes. But if you know what you're using it for and what you're using it for, it's a great product for quality/price. I also have 5D II and L series lenses, but when I want to go for a carefree ride I go out with the 1000D and the 18-270: with them I have everything I need!!

Pros: Weight, cost in the non-EU markets, relatively light, handyman, on APS-C remember to multiplier for 1.5 fast stabilization with ultrasonic motor (PZD), Spasticoso but well done.

Cons: Sharpness and brightness

Opinion: I'm not ' ' the photographer ' ' but I've done photos for years with classic machines up to change running from Nikon D50 with relative zoom to a D5500 and this 18-270. will be too many megapixels will be that I am not used yet but the resulting photos I see not sharp. It will also be the blur but with the D50 with its 18-55 I took better pictures. At 18 mm It deforms a lot so I used it from 20-22. At 100mm the diaphragm is already at 6.3 then dark.. With daylight and short focal lengths, it behaves fine... for lengths above 150, better tripod or support. All in all with its focus of 45 cm you get close to the mark. Very short, comfortable traveling without changing lenses is more than valid. In the non-EU markets I paid 260 euro Qunci not even to ask who knows what kind of quality. I recommend it as the first tele to practice but sooner or later will be replaced.

Pros: Versatile. Short. Light. Sharp in the middle. Fast and quiet Autofocus. Discrete videos. Zoom block at 18 mm.

Cons: Slight vignettings and chromatic aberrations at extreme focal lengths. Soft at the edges. A little dark in automatic mode. The zoom will drift when it is in an inclined position.

Opinion: Got new (399 euros) for my Sony APS-C (A200 and A68). Very short lens If you think it contains 16 lenses that have to do a crazy job. Optical handyman, decidedly versatile and light, that manages to do the wide angle, landscapes, portraits, tele (10 mm more than expected!), even macros, even if not pushed. In short, ideal excuse to make a nice trip with a single lens... The autofocus is very fast and quiet, ideal in the video, as long as you do not exaggerate the zooming and the shaded areas. The sharpness, especially at the edges, leaves a little ' to be desired at full aperture, but closing the diaphragm from 8 to 11 the problem resolves. Over 200 mm There is a slight vignetting, especially in backlight, but also here it resolves by closing the diaphragm of a couple of stops. Unlike some say, I have not noticed any "lens flare" thanks to the excellent lens hood provided and the anti-reflective treatment. Instead, the low dispersion glasses fail to eliminate the slight chromatic aberrations that plague him at the extreme focal lengths: Here unfortunately it is not enough to close the diaphragm. It is not very bright, and I recommend not to use it in "Auto" mode unless you are outdoors in the middle of summer and noon... I personally use aperture priority and in this way the "right" shots increase. With the use, after an annetto, the zoom has become a bit of a lapse when it is not in a horizontal position, in the sense that it tends to slide changing the focal of its head and forcing me to hold it still for the ring nut.

Pros: Very comfortable-fast focus

Cons: Noisy sharpness (a lot, too noisy)

Opinion: Excellent lens to take on a trip without a complete kit I was expecting a little 'more clarity but for the cost that has honestly we are content, used on a Nikon 7000 does its job more or less well rnSe not for a crazy tumor the engine of the objective I adore the possibility of locking the lens at 18 like now never all the new lenses

Pros: Versatile, wide focal length (15x), stabilized, value for money

Cons: Brightness, sharpness is not optimal for all focal lengths

Opinion: When I bought it for my D3100 it just came out, and I chose it because at that time it was the zoom that covered most focal points. RnI am quickly found well, and I appreciated his extreme comfort. Designed for those who, in certain excursions, do not want to carry a backpack with their goals and must travel lightly, or can not change their lens for external factors. As all wide focal range lenses can not be both bright and sharp at the same time at all focal points; Despite this, his work does more than fine, and allows you to take good photographs in all situations. In my opinion, it is a very good "all to do", for those who have to travel or hike that oblige him to travel lightly and not to be noticed. Also advised of who is the first to love and must decide on which genres and what focuses they will want to point in on their journey as a photographer.

Pros: Lightweight, zoom range, stabilizer, cost

Cons: Vignetting from 100 mm up, dark (but what can you expect from an 15x zoom?), Smooth, flare

Opinion: I own this lens for about a year and I can say that I fully exploited. I think it's one of the lightest and most compact superzoom on the market and its also has very low cost, if you search for a handyman lens without fainting, and you have no need for a large aperture is ideal. The stabilizer works well, especially at 18mm, where you can also shoot at 1/8 without blur. He has made a very soft wide open, but it disappears from f5.6 to f11 and focal lowest climbing focal. It has a strong vignetting after 100/150 mm, but closing at f16 disappears almost completely. Backlit suffers a lot of flare and the risk that artifacts appear with night shots is very strong. Despite this, I do not think you can expect more at this price and with these dimendioni and weights (is roughly a little over 18-55 kit ..)

Pros: Price, Weight, excursion Focal, Silent, fast and accurate AF, Stabilized

Cons: Dark, Calo sharpness at the edges to extreme focal

Opinion: I bought this lens a year ago aims to do everything. The really good construction and well-balanced weight, give a sense of solidity and value of both entry-level and on the most massive bodies (Nikon D3200 and D7200). Despite plasticosità body, the rings move fluid and precise, giving a sense of precision. Good sharpness in the center of the lenses if properly calibrated with the diaphragm, slightly tends to lose and vignettare over 200m if we want to be picky. The AF is really fast and precise, and quiet, as well as the stabilizer, essential with a superzoom. Colors and Contrasts not lively, but easily correctable by car. Fully satisfied.

Pros: Aim to do everything with undisputed quality including handling, focal length optical stabilizer very effective, price ... everything with the necessary compromises

Cons: For wide-angle shot flaw slightly at the edges, chromatic aberazzione this but nothing obscene as many say all fixable flaws in PP ... as I said with these optics are compromises but if you do not want to change is often the lens only solution

Opinion: Rehearsed as optical handyman ... good compromise for those who are beginners and want to travel light ... Bought on ebay at a crazy price € 225 with shipping again ... I did not believe it myself all arrived on time and all new with warranty ... maybe it has remained one if I remember correctly ... but I highly recommend it, vastly improved compared to the previous, vc really good, some flaws them senz other but are acceptable given the price and the opportunities It offers ...

Pros: Convenient to carry, light weight, low cost, excellent companion because of his mm, do not ever miss in your bag.

Cons: How to zoom to 250 loses a bit 'on the edge, very bright, a18 of APSC does not give up, disappointed that do not give a case. Like any Tamron has the manual system ro, add inevitable, big hassle.

Opinion: I 've purchased as my first lens for my APSC, after the 18/55 supplied I dropped and broke the screw coupling (plastic). Its large extent and the advice of a friend, very satisfied, convinced me (although its cost). I must say that I took a lot with him, also published on Juza, but not all pictures have come so well, since taking over the 250 mm consumes a little 'edge. Anyway, I'm satisfied with the shopping, if I were to lose the riacquisterei, small footprint, if you happen to go to a place where the weight of the equipment is a problem with this and you'll have a APSC volume of a powershot, with the possibility of keen entertain. NB Screw metal lens hood, bag buy on amazon for a few Euros. I hope I was chiaro.ciao to tutti.rnForse system ro is migliorare.rn

Pros: Versatility, hike, autofocus, stabilizer, quality / price

Cons: Not too bright, derived Zoom when tilted.

Opinion: I purchased it along with the first reflex is aware of the merits of that difetti.rnE 'a handyman at the beginning allowed me to go out without constantly change objectives allowing me to practice and experimentation. rnL'ho found excellent and superior to the various 18-55 or 18-105 supplied that do not have the versatility and sometimes even the quality (distortion and vignetting) .rnIn conclusion a good buy in the awareness of the limitations that such a hike and a this quality range comportano.rnQuesta the first picture taken (unfortunately in automatic iris fairly closed) with the D7100 rnhttp: //www.juzaphoto.com/galleria.php? t = 1126652 & l = itrn

Pros: Huge zoom range, optical stabilizer, and fast autofocus.

Cons: The sharp falls in the maximum focal

Opinion: State now that I was lent a week from my brother .... but this lens was not particularly happy with the found faint and dark .... Accustomed to my 18_55 equal to the focal found inferiore..poi a particular that bothered me in and zoom are that if you put the safety falcimente comes out and you find yourself with the camera around his neck with the zoom all out.

Pros: Price / quality good, focal length, weight and image stabilizer

Cons: A little bright, but at this price and with this focal length what you want?

Opinion: I bought it because of pressure from my wife, who wanted to lens a handyman, I have never forgiven the purchase of the D7100 without optics kit (18-105). Rnih a day we did about 300 photos to prove it in different situations, landscapes, portrait, children playing, etc. .., I have to say that he behaved very well, clear images and blur-free micro (the VC system works really well), the brightness is its biggest flaw in some situations we had to raise significantly the ISO.rnrnSe you are looking for a lens to do everything at a reasonable price, I highly recommend it.

Pros: Ability to use only one objective, without having to make changes and lose the ability to do a particular photo. Stabilizer fairly effective.

Cons: For practicality of use you lose a little bit in terms of brightness, the maximum focal length and with a 270mm MAF infinity is but just reduces the MAF you get to about 240mm, which could make him prefer the canon 55-250

Opinion: It may be a good buy for those who need practicality of using a single objective, or to learn, the only coupled 18-55 55-250 is superior. So buying this lens should be evaluated very carefully, if only for the fact that it is not (except with the MAF infinity) a true 270. Recommended as mentioned in newbies to learn without having to constantly change target, or for those who have space problems in having to manage 2 or more goals.

Pros: Versatility - A variation always come out with one goal

Cons: Pitch dark in many situations, the great stabilizer does not work miracles - up from 200 the image quality becomes a mirage

Opinion: When I took it seemed like a good choice, in hindsight ... is convenient because it allowed me many times to go out without purse, and switch to a landscape, to shoot a bird on a tree in 1 second, but the compromises are many: it is bright, with little light in my hand is almost always been impossible to take pictures freehand, l is is great, in my hand (very firm) compensates for 3 stops, but does not do miracles. The focus is lentina, but acceptable condition No normal, low-light and moving subjects (in particular the focal length of 200-270) is ... I would say eccentric ... because you never know who will combine. Until around 150 mm overall image quality (sharpness, vignettaura, distortion, the difference between corner and center, c) is more acceptable and less homogeneous, more and better standard of classical canon 18-55 etc. .... but above this focal the edges are impastatissimi, and dark, and also in the center, there is not much detail. IN CONCLUSION my first picture I made with him, but I do notadvice, take 2 lenses if you want a hike so great, canon 15-85 and 70-200 f4 if you want long distances, canon 10-22 and 24-105 if you love landscapes and reportage, or cm ², avoid long trips.

Pros: great product as factotum with this lens you can safely take pictures very beautiful in many moments to capture enough light and excellent engine excellent stabilizer for focus, zoom responds quickly to the movements of the ring would highly recommend it to every machine I use with a Nikon D60

Cons: I do not have to make negative comments but just an observation you might have a focal length a bit lower than 3.5 the ideal would be a focal length of 3.0 or 3.3 for the rest everything ok

Opinion: very happy with our purchase also are available on service and professional I have resolved quickly and with diligence really is lacking in many other companies if you have to buy a lens you can go on the quiet with this product will make great pictures at any distance using the right timing and the right aperture in manual a lot of satisfaction

Pros: Practical and convenient to save time and do not miss the moment for close-ups and wide-angle lenses with good brightness, effective stabilizer.

Cons: Gaining Convenience, of course, is lost in depth than the classic canvas 28-300.

Opinion: For those like me who have to learn to use good camera and lens is on good investment, good brightness. price and quality right, I can not compare it with other paintings. The photos are sharp with good colors for both landscapes and close-ups are not too bad. Discreetly silent, but the focus seems to me quite quickly.
