Great 1st Lens
This Lens dose everything it says it will. This is a great lens to have if you only want to carry one lens as it as a macro function for the tiny close ups as well as a 300mm zoom for those long distance shots. This is my new favourite lens.

Tamron 70-300mm f/4-5.6 Di LD Macro 1:2 AF review by TheSnore
This is a full frame lens and I'm using it on a crop sensor body. I am very pleased with the image quality. Real life isn't tack sharp why should the images we capture be any different?
Pros:
- Inexpensive
Cons:
- Auto Focus noisy and sluggish

Inexpensive but good
I wanted a longer lens for my Canon, but I knew I wouldn't use it enough to justify buying L-glass or some other high-priced lens. This fit the bill and what arrived was just what I wanted -- a lens that I could pull out to meet a special need, even if it didn't have the optical quality of another...
Pros:
- Easily Interchangeable
- Lightweight
- Strong Construction
Cons:
- No Image Stabilization

Slow but cheap
Great lens for slow scenes, portraiture and landscapes. The auto focus is no match for fast paced sports shots but at this price its a handy addition to any camera bag.

Nice for the price
I purchased this as a gift. This is a pretty good entry level tele zoom. Low light performance suffers without a monopod or tripod, and the af is slow sometimes, especially in low light, but pre-focus manually first, not a problem getting sharp images.
Pros:
- Very sharp even wide open
Cons:
- No IS
- Plastic mount

Tamron AF 70-300mm F/4-5.6 Di LD Macro Lens
excellent quality tested by the pro's and matched the big ticket stuff, motorised focus works well. The price is well below 1/2 of some the online and retail traders. Lens is well balanced on the camera body.
