The TAMRON 18-270mm F/3.5-6.3 Di II VC PZD (Model B008) is quite a controversial lens. I just had to get one to find out for myself what this lens is all about. Follow my blog as I use this lens on a daily basis and discover for yourself if this lens is indeed a diamond in the rough, or if it simply just another average, try to do it all, kit level lens.

Tigerlily

Not much to comment here but to note that the Tamron again shows its flexibility. These images were taken one after the other without swapping lenses. The one photo was taken at 270mm and the one following at 25mm and right there is one of the biggest selling points of this lens.

So the Tamron 18-270mm VC PZD may not be the sharpest fastest lens on the market, but for the price you will be very hard pressed to find any lens as versatile. As for image quality, and keeping in mind I shot these inside and handheld, all I can say, I am more than pleased with the results below! A+ Tamron.
