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.

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.

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.

Tamron 70-300mm telephoto lens
The Tamron 70-300mm telephoto lens is an entry level telephoto and macro lens aimed at people who are new to DSLRs... I got this lens at Jessops as part of my camera bundle, so i originally only paid about £100.00 for it.
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
