I have the 28-300 Canon L. I am a amateur so build quality is not of huge importance even though the tamrons is good.Image quality is very close to the same as far as I can tell. Weight and size are a huge advantage.

Cost; Ergonomics; Image Quality Super Zoom; Iq As Good As My 24-105l; Size; Weight

Announced at the CP+ show in Japan in February, the Tamron 28-300mm f/3.5-6.3 Di VC PZD (Model A010E) lens initially went on sale late in June. Replacing the previous model (A20), the new lens is smaller and lighter, thanks to a new mechanical design with a multi-stack-cam layout that takes up less...

Tamron have offered a 28-300mm super-zoom lens of one kind or another for 35mm full frame cameras for quite some time now. This lens is the latest refinement, which sports optical vibration compensation, a silent piezo-electric focusing motor and a splash-proof construction.

Consistent sharpness across the frame; Convenient 10.7x zoom range; Effective VC system; Good build and splash proof construction; Reasonably compact and lightweight; Piezoelectric focusing motor

Not much different in price between this and Nikon marque lens

lens for full frame DSLRs, we admittedly scoffed a bit. How dare they try to simplify the beauty that is offered to full frame camera users! Traditionally, focal lengths like this have been very kit-lens like in design and quality.

The Tamron 28-300mm f/3.5-6.3 Di VC PZD is a love it or loathe it kind of lens. On the one hand, pixel peepers will have something of a field day when scrutinising images at 100% magnification, as there some quite obvious issues with the image quality.

Tamron is a pioneer in all-in-one, do-everything lenses. Their new 28-300mm f/3.5-6.3 Di PZD lens is designed for Canon, Nikon and Sony shooters and I tested the Canon EF version using an EOS 5D Mark I and an EOS 50D, which changes the lens' angle-of-view to that of a 45-480mm lens.

Are you looking for a lens that is ready for anything? Well, Tamron recently released their 28-300mm F/3.5-6.3 DI VC PZD lens and they are calling it the "innovative all-in-one zoom.

While I'm not sure if/when my schedule will allow a full text review to be created for the Tamron 28-300mm f/3.5-6.3 Di VC PZD Lens. In the meantime, please find the complete set of standardized test results along with product images specs and measurements available to help in your lens decision...

Good value for money. As sharp as the original similar canon lens an a fraction of its weight along with a 4 year warranty!

A sharp, well built lens; much better than the one it replaces. I use this lens on a Canon 6D and I am extremely happy with its performance.
