Zoom ahead!
This lens is a real improvement on the standard lens for the Sony Alpha A200. It does add a little bulk and weight to the camera but allows sufficient extra zoom facility to greatly extend the range of the camera.

Tamron AF 18-200mm F3.5-6.3 XR Di-II LD IF
Tamron's AF18-200mm F3.5-6.3 XR Di-II LD IF was announced in February 2005 as an all-round 11.1x zoom lens. Featuring coverage from wide-angle to decent telephoto, it's ideal for a wide variety of situations – and for some photographers be the only lens they'll ever need.
Pros:
- Highly versatile 11.1x zoom range
- Great value
- Relatively small and light - great travel lens
- Polariser-friendly internal focusing
Cons:
- Sigma version very similar
- Pricier Nikkor version has anti-shake
- Pricier Nikkor version is optically faster
- Pricier Nikkor version has better build quality

I did not own this lens but one of my family member did foor less than a year. Indeed, even if the quality was not wonderful, even taking really great care of the gear did not prevent it from the lenses inside to move (it never fell or whatever) and gave a total ly blurry image.
Pros:
- None
Cons:
- - No durability - Not so good for its price

"Cant Be Good at Everything"
As a novie in the world of DSLR I bought this lens as its focal lenth meant I could lessen the risk of getting dust on my cameras sensor through lens changing. I also wanted a lens that would limit the amount of kit I needed when taking my camera on a trip and this made this lens ideal.
Pros:
- Light One Lens Solution
Cons:
- Soft edges at wide end

Good for the Price
The first thing I noticed was that it doesn't zoom all the way out to 200mm. There is almost no difference between 135mm and 200mm. I compared the focal length between it's 200 and my Tamron 70-300's 200mm, and there was a big difference. Still worth the money as a walk around lens.
Pros:
- Compact
- Internal Focusing
- Zoom Lock
Cons:
- Not 18-200mm (more like 18-135mm

Tamron
I've waited to review this lens until I had used it for several events. Although I have found that as some of the reviews some photos can be slightly 'soft'. It actually is a very practical lens and you can make this lens work for you.

only useful to store the lense
There is no aditional macro feature as mentioned. As per user guide, when the lense is at 200mm, the lense can be used as macro. Doesnt make sense. The lock feature works only at 18mm. i.e, only useful to store the lense. nothing like an aditional feature.
