Tamron AF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 LD Di macro (Pentax K) - Review / Lab Test Report
The Tamron is obviously a low budget lens - locally it sells for just ~130€ - it does hardly get any cheaper than this. However, it is amazing that Tamron didn't really sacrifice too much build quality.

This lens slid under my radar for a long time. How did I not know about this I have two Canon lens (85mm and a 50mm) both manufactured by Canon. I needed something that I could focus from a greater length and this was it. I ordered a 70-200mm from Canon and it was just too heavy.

Great results. The pro reviews say it's not up to the quality of more expensive lenses, but you'd need to be a very critical viewer to spot the difference. I've seen no evidence of coloured outlines on zoomed images and focus is sharp and accurate - sharper in fact than my Nikon 35-70mm lens.

If you are an amateur photographer you would be surprised by the quality of this lens. For the price you pay (less than $200) you get an excellent product. The only real drawback is the noise that the AF produces, compared to the Ultrasound lenses by Canon.

Great lens!!!!
I have used this lens on a beach photo shoot (so I dont have to get my feet wet) and this lens OUTPERFORMED my expectations. It's performed average shooting the runway fashion show so not so great with moving indoor subjects because of the blah low light capabilities.

Good Product
Lens is value for money.... But there is chromatic aberrations in 300 mm....... Don't expect optical image stabilization in this price segment.
