    All rounder lense5.0/5

    All rounder lense I am very pleased with this lense. I mage is sharp enough, you get a wide range of focal length, specially that 16mm which is very useful for indors, tight spaces and landscape. Not Quite a fast lense though.. knowing your light and a good flash is of great help. Overall, nice color, good sharpness across the range, and the flexibility to go from 16-300mm in a single lense.... love it.

    Early firmware incompatible with some cameras.2.0/5

    Early firmware incompatible with some cameras. Bought it for Canon 80d and early models firmware causes camera freeze if LiveView or Video is used. So lens is useless for me. Tamron doesn't offer easy worldwide updates for that. VERY dissapointed with Tamron policies with their faulty firmware. www tamron co jp/en/news/release_2016/0406

    What a good deal so far5.0/5

    What a good deal so far Works just fine so far after a few months in the filed. Great price and lens for the money. The only slight drawback is the lens is a little slow at time to focus but you get a hell of a focal range out of it. There is little distortion at both extreme ends but nothing outrages or you do what I do is to back off just a touch and its fine Would buy again.
