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.

Tamron AF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 Di LD Macro Review
Tamron's lens feels remarkably lightweight for its type. This is almost certainly because there is no image-stabilisation (IS) technology, which equivalent lenses from Nikon, Canon and Sigma lenses all offer. For the same reason, it is also no more than one-third of the price of its competitors.
Pros:
- Close-up facility
Cons:
- No image stabilisation

Good bang for the buck!
The lens itself is not very heavy, which means that the lens is probably made out of plastic, which is okay if you're just starting into digital photography. The motor inside the lens is a little slow to focus, and is a little noisy, but who cares how loud a lens is, really?
Pros:
- Great product for the amount of money spent
- great beginning telephoto lens
- included 5 year warranty
Cons:
- A little slow to focus
- noisy
- lightweight = plastic lenses

Tamron AF 70-300mm f4.0-5.6 Di LD Macro Zoom Lens for Canon Digital SLR Cameras
I'm brand new to the photography but I am hooked! After getting my XSi from my husband for Christmas the natural next step was to buy lens. It's hard to afford the lens's direct from Canon so after monitoring several forums I decided this was the next best step.

Pros:
- good value
- get what you expect
- decent macro mode
- large focal range for the price
Cons:
- less than brilliant focusing: a bit noisy and slow
- manual focus ring is a bit smooth

quality for the price!
My first Tamron 70 - 100mm lens mechanism failed so found it more cost effective to replace rather then repair. However because the lens is so compatible and easy to use it will always be a key part of my camera equipment.
Pros:
- Consistent Output
- Easily Interchangeable
- Lightweight
- Quick Focus
- Sharp Focus
