    Tamron AF 28-200mm f/3.8-5.6 XR Di Aspherical (IF) Macro is a auto focus telephoto zoom lens for full frame cameras.

    Optical design

    Thanks to the macro capabilities this lens can make tiny things look big. Has 7 aperture blades, mid-grade lenses usually have this amount of blades. Having rounded blades provides out of focus circle shape closer to a circle.

    Physical characteristics

    Weights 354 grams so plan ahead, carry only if really necessary. With a lens filter diameter of 62 mm you are one step from the next standard filter size, buy step-up ring and bigger filter you may want to use a step-up ring and 67 or 77mm filter. 75 mm long, requires consideration if you want to carry in the camera bag.

    Good Lens4.0/5

    Good Lens I bought this lens a few weeks ago. It is a good lens, not the best, but for someone who isn't looking to break the bank on a lens I think this one is a really good choice. Since it is 28-200mm you have a lot of zoom power at your disposal that would probably take 2 lenses to achieve otherwise. It is versatile and the silver body design is quite nice.

    Tamron A03M For Minolta and Sony ALPHA5.0/5

    Tamron A03M For Minolta and Sony ALPHA I purchased this lens because it was inexpensive ($150) compared to its next-in-line 28-300($496). It became the ONLY lens I used.

    An older lense that still works well5.0/5

    An older lense that still works well This is a discontinued lens designed for a 35mm film camera. However, it works well with my D7100. Auto focus is a little slow but then again it was first introduced in 1996. The focus is sharp & works well for stills & landscape. For the money you can't beat this lens.
