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.

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.

Tungt och suddigt

Jag har inte mycket positivt att säga om denna produkt. Jag lämnade tillbaka den efter en vecka och var väldigt besviken. När jag i efterhand började läsa recensioner av objektivet kände jag igen problemen jag haft med det. Slö AF och dålig skärpa återkom i väldigt många omdömen.
Pros:
  • + Priset
Cons:
  • - Tyngden
  • Objektivet väger mycket och känns klumpigt till min lilla D40
  • Mitt Nikkorobjektiv 55-200 är visserligen mindre, men inte mycket, och det känns inte alls klumpigt och tungt, - Skärpan
  • Trots att jag fotar med stativ och IR-kontroll blir bilderna suddiga.

Awesome product

Great lens for the price. Hasn't given us any issues. Ensure to read the instruction manual if you are unfamiliar with macro lenses. Honestly though, great purchase!

REVIEW: Tamron AF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 Di LD Macro

Lens guru, Gary Wolstenholme tests the Tamron 70-300mm zoom lens. Is it worth the relaively low price or should it be relegated to the bargain bin? Often after purchasing a camera complete with standard kit lens, many will look for a telephoto zoom to extend their reach when photographing distant...
Pros:
  • Lightweight
  • Resolution at shorter focal lengths
  • Macro feature
  • Good value for money
  • Good resistance to ghosting and flare
Cons:
  • Slow autofocus
  • Rotating front element may make it difficult to use a polariser
